[Bug 994541] [NEW] update-grub generate grub.cfg mess if 40_custom contains submenu /s

[martin suc]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

(I am strongly/often using 40_custom with submenu/s .)
When I created submenu/s in 40_custom file
update-grub is going to generated submenu/s in 40_custom section of grub.cfg file  - that is correct.
BUT as well all menuentries are taken from submenu/s of 40_custom file and put them in 30-os-probe section of grub.cfg file - it is not correct. update-grub / 30_os-prober should not be doing this.

Is there any workarround for it ?

Thank You,
Kind Regards,
Martin
