I can confirm that this bug is not fixed. Today Ubuntu informed me of 20.04 and I started the distribution upgrade. I got the following message:

"Could not install 'grub-pc'. The upgrade will continue but the 'grub-pc' package may not be in a working state. Please consider a bug report about it. Installed grub-pc package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1."

I can reboot normally and so far I can tell everything is working. When I do a # apt autoremove I get the following error:
