Bug Description

Binary package hint: grub

When updating the kernel I got a question from dpkg about a difference between my menu.lst and the package one. To me it wasn't clear what that package one was and I feard it would overwrite my local additions, so I choose to keep the local one. After that update-grub stopped to work. Apparently the generated menu.lst is seen as the package one. In my opinion this is not clear at all and can result easliy - as was the case with me - in taking the wrong decision.
