Bug#696962: grub-efi-{amd64, ia32}: fails to install: cp: cannot create regular file '/boot/grub/': Not a directory

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: grub-efi-amd64,grub-efi-ia32
Version: 1.99-24
Severity: serious
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

Hi,

during a test with piuparts I noticed your package failed to install. As
per definition of the release team this makes the package too buggy for
a release, thus the severity.

>From the attached log (scroll to the bottom...):

  Selecting previously unselected package grub-efi-amd64.
  (Reading database ... 7077 files and directories currently installed.)
  Unpacking grub-efi-amd64 (from .../grub-efi-amd64_1.99-24_amd64.deb) ...
  Setting up grub-efi-amd64 (1.99-24) ...
  
  Creating config file /etc/default/grub with new version
  cp: cannot create regular file '/boot/grub/': Not a directory
  dpkg: error processing grub-efi-amd64 (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   grub-efi-amd64


cheers,

Andreas
