Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub
My boot menu does not include the archbang installation I have on the other partition.
I expect every linux distro to detect the other.
Previous versions of the grub included in ubuntu used to detect other linux versions, today only Ubuntu is detected.
It's kinda funny because arch did not detect ubuntu either.
This looks bad, it's like the foul play between Windows 7 and linux :/ (where Windows tries to make Linux unbootable).

What's the output of 'sudo os-prober'? Also, after running that
command, please attach /var/log/syslog to this bug.
There is no intent towards foul play here, and I would appreciate not
needing to waste time defending ourselves against such accusations.
Let's keep the conversation technical, not political.
