Bug#954856: Please add option to install signed grub bootloader



Hallo Bernhard,

Oh, we do install grub-efi-amd64 which Depends: grub-efi-amd64-bin which
itself Recommends: grub-efi-amd64-signed.

So either stop disabling Recommends (you're working against the default
setting, you're supposed to be dealing with the consequences on your
own), or additionally install grub-efi-amd64-signed through appropriate
parameters in your preseed file.

This seems to me like a not-a-bug situation.

Leaving this open for other members of the installer team to comment,
but as far as I can tell, this bug report could likely be closed right
away.


Cheers,
