Control: tag -1 patch Cyril Brulebois <kibi@debian.org> (2019-07-12): > With stretch, we were getting efibootmgr's output in the installer's > syslog, which could help track down issues related to the boot sequence. > > With buster, due to grub2's switch to using libefi* (since both the > 2.02+dfsg1-14 and 2.02+dfsg1-15 uploads), efibootmgr is no longer used; > it's kept in Recommends (since 2.02+dfsg1-17) though. > > It would be great to check whether efibootmgr is present and to call it > to get its output back into the installer's syslog. > > This would have been helpful for the #931910 installation report, for > example. > > > Once it's implemented and tested in unstable/testing, I'll consider > backporting this for a buster point release. Untested commit pushed in the pu/efibootmgr-for-debugging-931917 branch. Review/tests welcome!
