Comment 5 for bug 2051999

Hi Mike,

Do you happen to know what changes to GRUB the "patch 2 weeks ago" refers to? I am not seeing any ZFS related changes in the GRUB tree 2 weeks ago, and that Savannah ticket is also many months old.

Nonetheless, Noble is getting a GRUB 2.12 release very soon (which is based on a lot newer upstream than 2.12~rc1), which should include any remotely recent ZFS changes. And according to the OpenZFS issue page linked from Savannah, also resolves this particular issue. Supported stable releases are also planned to get backports of GRUB 2.12 sometime after NN gets released.

I wonder if there is any scenario where users can experience breakage without manually enabling bpool snapshotting? Because I feel like we need some sort of solid justification to have a cherry-pick SRU of 2.06 with the ZFS commits right now.
