[Bug 1596133] Re: package grub-common 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Alastair Carey]

In my case, it was the init.d script for the Samsung Unified Print
Driver that was causing the loop. Since the init.d script for that
driver is only necessary when using an LPT port, I simply removed the
script and the grub installation completed normally.
