Bug#954405: grub-common: No provision for using grub-theme-* with 05_debian_theme

Package: grub-common
Version: 2.04-5
Severity: minor
Researching why gfx didn't work in grub for me on this system, I
discovered that 05_debian_theme blocks the use of grub's native theming,
including grub-theme-starfield. The suggestion I've found elsewhere is
to chmod -x /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme so it doesn't do that. This
seems like a poor solution.
You could check for $GRUB_THEME to be set and bail early if it is, I
suppose, but there's no guarantee that $GRUB_THEME was able to be used
other than to repeat these tests currently around line 278 of 00_header:
if [ "x$GRUB_THEME" != x ] && [ -f "$GRUB_THEME" ] \
&& is_path_readable_by_grub "$GRUB_THEME"; then
If you bail on the Debian theme if $GRUB_THEME is set under those
conditions, it would be as robust as 00_header is. Checking that and
adding options to override the colors as requested in #714414 would make
the cosmetics pretty configurable without altering package-installed
files.
(As for my own config and why it didn't work? LUKS2, which is obvious
once I thought about it. I'd file a bug about it, if I had a brilliant
suggestion for a solution, other than maybe to make a note in some
README file I probably wouldn't have looked at before I got this far
into it anyway.)
