Package: grub-efi-amd64
Version: 2.02~beta2-29
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

GRUB2 supports booting from filesystems running under RAID5 using the
raid5rec
module. Because GRUB2 modules are stored under /boot and not the EFI
partition,
like grubx64.efi, GRUB2 is unable to boot from volumes when /boot is on a
RAID5
volume without regenerating grubx64.efi by hand.

The attached patch includes raid5rec and raid6rec when building the EFI
images as is done with LVM and all other raid modules.
