Sorry, it is grub2 that was having the problem (it is the new interface that now works again). Here is the version that is currently installed and working (after the fix link):
grub-pc: Installed: 1.96+20090725-1ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.96+20090725-1ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1.96+20090725-1ubuntu1 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
and also seems to be the latest.
