Package: grub
Version: 0.97-16
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
After an upgrade from 0.97-15 to 0.97-16, I have the following
situation:
/sbin/grub-install is not found (it should be the transitional wrapper)
/usr/sbin/grub-install is the wrapper for grub-install
nothing like a /usr/sbin/grub-install.real is found; there is no real
grub-install
/usr/sbin/grub-install calls itself in an infinite loop as it contains
the line:
exec /usr/sbin/grub-install $*
This prevents grub-install from working at all, making it impossible to
install the grub bootloader to the MBR or anywhere.
Output of ls -l /sbin | grep grub
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 599 2006-09-15 14:55 update-grub
Output of ls -l /usr/sbin | grep grub

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1213 2006-04-01 14:41 grub-reboot
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2533 2006-09-15 14:55 grub-set-default
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 2473 2006-09-15 14:55 grub-terminfo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 599 2006-09-15 14:55 update-grub
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 31889 2006-09-04 16:41 update-grub.real
Note the size of grub-install, obviously fitting to the one of the
wrapper shell script.
