Bug Description

This is related to #396381 but probably slightly more specific.

Currently if any packages install or update files in /etc/grub.d, they need to arrange for update-grub to be run via their postinst or similar. I think the appropriate way would be for grub to register a trigger for that directory so that install and removal of packages that install files in it automatically run update-grub.

I have observed this in 14.04 and 15.04.

Enhancement request, marking Triaged/Wishlist. Ideally this would have to be done in Debian directly, in fact.

Changed in grub2 (Ubuntu):
status: New → Triaged
importance: Undecided → Wishlist

This was marked as a duplicate of #1250109, but it is not. This one is about grub itself registering a trigger on its hook directory.
