The GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2 packages already conflict against each other. The only exception is grub-common, which is generated from grub2 but even grub depends on it because of grub-probe. It's not at all a bug that it's installed on a system which still uses GRUB Legacy. I leave it to Colin to close the bug or reassign it. >The upgrade program should detect the fact that the legacy grub is >installed, and leave it alone, unless the files being updated are >appropriate for the 0.97 grub. For this to be implemented someone would need to maintain a list if that grub-common update is needed also for GRUB Legacy users or not. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- Update-manager tries to install grub-2 update on system with legacy grub https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/443326 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
