Package: grub-efi-amd64-unsigned
Version: 1+2.12+5

Dear Maintainer,

Setting up a system with "Secure Boot! will prohibit
dynamically loading modules via insmod.

Grub implements the "Boot Loader Interface" with the
bli module. This for ex. allows locating and mounting
boot and esp partitions with systemd-gpt-auto-generator.

For that to work, it needs to be included in the binary,
I havent found a way to do this, I tried:

grub-install --modules=bli ..

Secure-Boot is common with x64, please bundle this module
by default.
