Package: release.debian.org User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org Usertags: unblock Severity: normal X-Debbugs-CC: 686182@bugs.debian.org X-Debbugs-CC: debian-l10n-english@lists.debian.org Hi release team, I wonder if we should consider removing the grub dummy package from the grub source package. grub 0.97-64 (in Squeeze) is already a dummy package that depends on grub-pc, and this dummy package ships an RC-buggy (#686182) debconf screen. Since grub-legacy (even 0.97-64) already provides grub, the few remaining rdepends*, if any remains, shouldn't be affected Regards David P.-S.: grub-disk, grub-doc and multiboot-doc could probably be dropped too. I haven't yet seriously looked into it since it would not be actual RC-bug fixing, let me know if I should consider removing them too. P.-P.-S.: *only startupmanager depends on grub | grub-pc, a few other packages may still have grub among their suggestions.

-Description: Upgrading from GRUB Legacy
- GRUB 0.97, the Legacy version of GNU GRUB, is from now on considered a
- deprecated option. Your system is now being upgraded to GRUB 2.
- .
- GRUB 2 features a more advanced architecture, it's much more robust, and
- provides a number of new features. However, not all features provided by
- GRUB Legacy are implemented in GRUB 2.
- .
- If for some reason you want to continue using GRUB Legacy, it is now provided
- in the `grub-legacy' package. It will continue being supported at least up
- until the Squeeze release.
