We have already a bug report for this. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=536453 with which I just merged yours. But the one who made first a patch for this and sent this upstream disappeared. So feel free to go ahead and talk with upstream. > You'll notice I switched the -e from > the > shebang line to an explicit set -e For why see: > http://blog.andrew.net.au/2009/11/20#dash_e_shebang_bad Sounds wise, but I suggest you discuss this with upstream. It would probable help if you're willing to change it in every script file we have for consistency. > Need anything further, just holler.

Supporting much things on our own which are clearly a benefit for upstream too is jus a PITA. > > -jcm GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=keep is by the way already default in 05_debian_theme of the experimental uploads.
