2010-11-30 21:41:12 Scott Moser summary user prompted twice on grub-pc upgrade from 1.98-1ubuntu7 to 1.98-1ubuntu8 user prompted twice on ec2 grub-pc upgrade from 1.98-1ubuntu7 to 1.98-1ubuntu8
2010-11-30 21:52:03 Scott Moser description Binary package hint: grub2 During an 'apt-get update && apt-get install grub-pc' on a currently released ami (ami-4a0df923) I'm prompted twice by debconf for grub-pc. ami-4a0df923 is us-east-1 ebs/ubuntu-lucid-10.04-amd64-server-20101020. The two prompts are for: * Linux command line * Continue without installing grub a diff of 'debconf-get-selections' from before and after shows only: -grub-pc grub-pc/install_devices_empty boolean false +grub-pc grub-pc/install_devices_empty boolean true The first prompt can be avoided by: $ printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" grub-pc grub2/linux_cmdline string "x" | sudo debconf-set-selections The second prompt can be avoided by: $ printf "%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" grub-pc grub-pc/install_devices_empty boolean true | sudo debconf-set-selections For the first, though, a value has already been pre-seeded, just to an empty value. During the image build process, we seed grub-pc grub2/linux_cmdline string " " Also, subsequent revert to 1ubuntu7 and then forward to 1ubuntu8 do not see any prompts. I'm not sure whether or not this prompt is new with 1ubuntu8, and looking at the changelog alone, I would suspect that either a.) it has been present in all updates of grub-pc on lucid ec2 b.) it was new in 1.98-1ubuntu7 Overall, there is no reason for the ec2 user to see this prompt, and I've attempted to seed properly so that the prompts would be avoided. How can I ensure that the user isn't prompted?
