Package: os-prober Version: 1.76 X-Debbugs-CC: cjwat...@ubuntu.com The os-prober package should be released with all debug message disabled to align with what other package does. If the debug message provides any useful information to user, it should be flagged as info not debug anyway.
Currently the syslog could be flooded with debug message from os-prober while running grub-mkconfig, and we find no better way to manage it except patching grub. For that a patch has been proposed upstream: https://www.mail-archive.com/grub-devel@gnu.org/msg29038.html The mainatainer of grub might not want to maintain extra os-prober specific option and also the usage of OS_PROBER_DISABLE_DEBUG is so obscure that we don't know if it will be changed in the future, for eg, with disabling debug message as default in new release. So please consider disabling the debug message in release, and also provide some way to re-enable it. We could still reuse the OS_PROBER_DISABLE_DEBUG environment varaible to re-enable it, but is somewhat confusing name for the new context IMHO. Thanks.
