Public bug reported:
If you attempt a OEM install under UEFI, oem-config will fail to be
installed, because installing oem-config installs ubiquity which
recommends "grub-pc | grub | grub-efi". Back in the day, grub-efi would
have been installed but it seems that this has now split into grub-efi-
amd64 and grub-efi-ia32, so none of these packages are installed. So apt
tries to install grub-pc, which conflicts with grub-efi-amd64, that is
scheduled for removal, but package removals are not permitted at this
step of the installer and so oem-config-debconf is not actually
installed (silently, which adds some bonus confusion).
I guess you could argue this is an apt bug (if it just installed the
transitional grub-efi instead...) but well it seems it's probably easy
enough to fix in ubiquity by having it recommend grub-efi-amd64 or grub-
efi-ia32 by arch instead.
