[Bug 1831631] Re: grub should be pre-installed on images

[Steve Langasek]

Yeah, I suppose we can get away with quite a lot of that.  The fixed
per-layer disk overhead of each squashfs looks like it's on the order of
4M (/var/lib/dpkg/status + /var/lib/apt/extended_states), which is not
large in the grand scheme.  And since we know this layer would be used
unconditionally for all subiquity install methods it would not make it
harder for us to ensure everything remained a tree.

Title:
  grub should be pre-installed on images

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  given that grub are now co-installable by default, shouldn't they be
  preinstalled in the squashfs?

  it seems like grub-efi-amd64-bin & signed are not in the squashfs.

  I guess that affects all of ubiquity & subiquity images.
