Bug#612777: grub-pc: /etc/default/grub uses GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_RECOVERY whereas /etc/grub.d/10_linux uses GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.99~rc1-2
Severity: normal


/etc/default/grub (and /usr/share/grub/default/grub) use
GRUB_LINUX_DISABLE_RECOVERY whereas 10_linux uses
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY.  So, setting GRUB_LINUX_DISABLE_RECOVERY
in /etc/default/grub has no effect.

This problem is not at all a very important one.  I fixed the
problem by changing /etc/default/grub to use what
/etc/grub.d/10_linux uses: GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY.

Thanks for the greatest operating system in the world!

Raghu
