Severity: important

Hi,

We've just found a bug when testing the 10.3 point release: our signed
Grub binaries don't include support for jfs. Easily fixed, and maybe
worth doing a stable upload too to add this.

It's currently possible to install a system with jfs on root that will
then fail on first boot, which is not great. :-/

Subject: Bug#952815: grub2: Please drop TARGET_CCASFLAGS from debian/rules for
 2.06 release
Message-ID: <158300173647.645481.12684220152489506402.reportbug@z6.physik.fu-berlin.de>

Hello!

The upcoming 2.06 release contains a fix to set -no-PIE in TARGET_CCASFLAGS [1]
such that the current workaround in debian/rules will no longer be necessary.

The following patch should be applied to debian/rules once 2.06-1 is uploaded
to the archive:

--- debian/rules.orig   2019-12-16 16:48:45.000000000 +0100
+++ debian/rules        2020-02-29 19:40:17.759252139 +0100
@@ -23,10 +23,6 @@
 export TARGET_CPPFLAGS := -Wno-unused-but-set-variable
 export TARGET_LDFLAGS := -no-pie
 
-ifneq (,$(filter sparc sparc64,$(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU)))
-export TARGET_CCASFLAGS := -fno-PIE
-endif
-
 # Ensure that debhelper doesn't try to set these; we need to be careful
 # about HOST_* vs. TARGET_*.
 export CPPFLAGS :=

Before 2.06, the workaround in debian/rules needs to be kept.

Thanks,
Adrian
