[Bug 1901906] Re: amd64 images should have correct set of bootloaders installed

 

This bug was fixed in the package livecd-rootfs - 2.664.10

---------------
livecd-rootfs (2.664.10) focal; urgency=medium

  * Do not hard-code the UC20 amd64 image size to 8GB as now ubuntu-image
    should be able to properly calculate the needed size itself.
  * But per discussion, we might want to keep the UC20 images a bit bigger than
    what's defined via the gadget/rootfs contents, to make sure writable is
    comfortably big enough. Use the same hard-coded value as for UC16 and UC18.

livecd-rootfs (2.664.9) focal; urgency=medium

   [ John Chittum]
   * Backport Ensure toolsVersion set in vmdk header (LP: #1893898)

   [ Dimitri John Ledkov & Joshua Powers ]
   * amd64: always install grub-pc with shim-signed (LP: #1901906), and
     ensure to autoremove packages

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * amd64 images should have shim-signed & grub-pc installed as the
  bootloaders, with all other alternatives not installed; and not
  partially removed (rc state). This is the only way to ensure that
  secureboot/efi boot works correctly, but also for BIOS grub-pc to work
  correctly. This is how we install systems by default today.

  [Test Case]

   * Build images; check that shim-signed & grub-pc are installed and configured
   * Check that no other packages are autoremovable or partially removed (rc)

  [Regression Potential]

   * The above changes gurantee that upon upgrades / dist-upgrade the
  correct set of bootloaders are installed. There will be a change of
  debconf keys and bootloader packages that are installed on the system,
  when comparing with a previous image, which some automation may be
  sensitive to if they were trying to automatically correct bootloader
  setup before.

  [Other Info]
   
   * Uploaded into hirsute already.
