[Bug 1633913] Re: failed to install grub-efi-amd64-signed

[hakuna_matata]

Lubuntu 16.10 desktop ISO does not work without internet connection. The
ISO does not contain /pool with additional packages.

If you compare
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/16.10/release/lubuntu-16.10
-desktop-amd64.list with http://releases.ubuntu.com/yakkety/ubuntu-16.10
-desktop-amd64.list, e.g. /pool/main/g/grub2-signed/grub-efi-
amd64-signed_1.74+2.02~beta2-36ubuntu11_amd64.deb is missing.

IMHO the advantage of a smaller ISO cannot compensate the drawback of a
necessary internet connection. So it is not really a feature, it is a
bug.
