[Bug 1385732] [NEW] package grub-efi-amd64 1.38+2.02~beta2-15 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 128

[hackel]

Public bug reported:

I received this error message during the upgrade from 14.04 to 14.10,
upgrading the package from 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 to 2.02~beta2-15.  The
postinst script is quite long and complicated, so I don't have time to
debug it myself.  It seems to me taht this is a rather serious, critical
error.  I started  with a freshly installed copy of 14.04 on an EFI
system.  After the upgrade, I'm now afraid to shut off or reboot myself
until I get this critical issue resolved.
