Bug#1072287: enable FLICKER_FREE_BOOT option for Debian distributions

[Javier Fernandez Pastrana]

Package: grub2
Version: 2.06-13
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: javier.pastrana at linutronix.de

Hello Debian Maintainers,

I would like to request the FLICKER_FREE_BOOT option to be enabled by
default for Debian distributions. This option is already implemented for
Ubuntu and Tanglu in the debian/rules file.

We are already applying the patch queue which implements the features
related to flicker-free boot. Therefore, the only missing piece is the
possibility to enable that option for Debian distributions by default.

Best regards,

Javier
