Package: grub-common
Version: 1.99-23
Followup-For: Bug #661789
Copying unicode.pf2 to /boot/grub was enough to get the 00_header script to
insert a section containing load_video into the config on my fresh encrypted
disk install without any other changes. Previously it couldn't find a font and
skipped adding the required section.
