[Bug 2032586] Re: [3.0][bug] Missing a 'grub-install' settings for classic image

[Paul Mars]

1. Considering the code, I suspect it was introduced during the golang rewrite (and it may also have been an issue with previous python version, but I do not really know much about them).
2. I do not think we moved the build of some images from ubuntu-image back to "full" livecd-rootfs. So I do not think any released images are affected. But I agree that would be problematic.


Be careful when checking "what" is building the image, because livecd-rootfs calls ubuntu-image, so both can be used in some cases.


Regarding missing packages, this may not be bug in ubuntu-images but something missing in the image definition (a package not explicitly listed?) or something wrong in the seed.

Title:
  [3.0][bug] Missing a 'grub-install' settings for classic image

Status in Ubuntu Image:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  We found if the classic image, which is generated by ubuntu-image 3.0,
  uses grub-efi as its boot assets, the classic environment can't update
  its shim.efi and grub.efi files correctly by "sudo apt upgrade".

  Because its grub Debian package manifest settings are not correct.
  Please reference the description from livecd-rootfs: https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/buildd/hooks/02-disk-image-uefi.binary?h=applied/ubuntu/jammy-devel#n101

  Could ubuntu-image 3.0 support to setup correct grub Debian package
  manifest?

  [Reproduce steps]
  1. Build an amd64 classic image that uses grub-efi boot assets
  2. Bootup image and make sure there is a newer shim-signed and grub-efi-amd64-signed
  3. "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt upgrade" to update newer shim-signed and grub-efi-amd64-signed
  4. Check the checksum result for /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi and grubx64.efi
  5. The checksum result still the old version, not newer version
