Package: grub-efi-arm-bin Version: 2.02~beta2-22 Severity: grave Justification: breaks entire (binary) package
Hi, Debian ships a package “grub-efi-arm-bin” that's supposed to contain an .efi image (and “grub-efi-arm” that wraps in some /etc/kernel hooks), and U-Boot is set up to search for it, but all it contains are the GRUB modules -- the actual .efi file (/efi/boot/bootarm.elf on the bootable partition) is nowhere to be seen. As far as I can see, there are two reasons for this; one, there's code in debian/rules that doesn't activate EFI image building (SB_PACKAGE etc.) unless the build happens on Ubuntu, and two, it seems grub-efi-arm was simply forgotten in the list, only grub-efi-amd64 and grub-efi-arm64 are remembered. I tried looking through the changelogs, but I couldn't find any recent changes here; I'm suspecting that this simply never worked? It's the exact same thing in jessie, at least, so I'm putting the version number at -22 to mark that this is not a regression (although I certainly see it on 2.02~beta2-36). /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: https://www.sesse.net/
