[Bug 1767703] Re: Calling 'apt-install grub-efi-amd64-signed' failed

[dino99]

@psusi

you have answered (#37) to the OP and was right to set the report as
'invalid'. But a lot of dupes also exist; that is why some links have
been added on top of the report to teach and educate users hiting such
issue.

Please let that report opened to let people find it and give them some
paths for fixing their problem. Setting it as 'incomplete' for now
instead.


** Changed in: grub-installer (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => Incomplete
