Package: grub Version: 0.97-13 File: /sbin/update-grub update-grub uses the non-POSIX 'local' command. What's worse it uses it in a way relying on its bash semantics. dash manual explicitely states that "When a variable is made local, it inherits the initial value and exported and readonly flags from the variable with the same name in the surrounding scope, if there is one." This means that in dash the 'hypervisor' variable is not made empty by its local declaration in write_kernel_entry and the written entry for a non-xen kernel is incorrect and unbootable.
