[Bug 2083176] Re: grub-efi install device being prompted on upgrade

install device to become invalid?

There nothing special about this device. It's just an HP laptop with a
single disk that was installed by me in a default way using the regular
installer, and probably upgraded from focal to jammy (I would have to
look at the logs to jog my memory).

Title:
  grub-efi install device being prompted on upgrade, despite only
  /boot/efi being an option.

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A family member just sent me this dialog that popped up when they
  installed their updates today. I'm not sure how a regular user is
  supposed to be able to handle what is presented here. Do they check
  the box? What happens if they don't?

  Heck, even I don't know what the proper action is here.

  This dialog box needs to be removed and a safe default needs to be
  applied automatically during upgrades.
