Bug#950079: grub-cloud-amd64: prompting due to modified conffiles which were not modified by the user: /etc/default/grub



Control: retitle -1 grub-cloud-amd64: not co-installable with grub-pc due to incompatible /etc/default/grub handling
Control: severity -1 serious

debian-cloud-images-packages has dropped the dependency on grub-pc in
the last upload, thanks.

Therefore I now vote for just adding to grub-cloud-amd64 a
  Conflicts: grub-pc

This is actually ucf vs conffile in different packages.

Great.
grub-pc: ucf
grub-cloud-amd64: conffile

Can we make grub-cloud-amd64 Conflicts: grub-pc ?
Then each can live in its own world handling /etc/default/grub differently. (Are there more grub-cloud-$ARCH?)
Or is there some need for them to be co-installable?
(Switching from one to the other without purging the old one first will likely cause more prompting, but such a switch is highly unlikely.)
