[Bug 2112584] Re: Please remove cd-boot-images-* from noble

[Mate Kukri]

This is good, but grub2 MP needs to be re-filed against correct repo at
https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/grub/+git/ubuntu.

Also I am not sure if there is much benefit to actually removing the cd-
boot-images packages (removal SRUs are super rare) in case a user relies
on them, but updating GRUB2 and then debian-cd to not use the packages
is already good enough. Imo the bug should be modified to reflect this
state as a new a goal.

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

   * The aim of this bug is to remove the package cd-boot-images-* from noble.
     This has been done for plucky in LP: #2086841. This is similar, but an SRU.

  [ Test Plan ]

   * Current Noble images are built by debian-cd using cd-boot-images-*.
     Once the a grub2 containing the MP
  https://code.launchpad.net/~adrianoco/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+git/grub2/+merge/486661 is out and a change to debian-cd not to use cd-boot-images-* is out we can
  test building daily iso images. All this has already been tested locally (a version of grub2 with the changes can be found in the ppa https://launchpad.net/~adrianoco/+archive/ubuntu/grubppa)

  [ Where problems could occur ]

    * There could be reverse dependencies to cd-boot-images-*. This should be
      checked before removing the package.

  [ Other Info ]

   * Tasks:

     - Provide pre-built BIOS and IEEE1275 El-Torito images in grub2
       (MP: 
  https://code.launchpad.net/~adrianoco/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+git/grub2/+merge/486661)
     - Change debian-cd not to use cd-boot-images-* (waiting for grub2 to be ready 
       to send a MP for this)
