---------------
grub2-unsigned (2.04-1ubuntu44.1.2) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Bump versioned dependency on grub2-common to 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.32 for
    necessary arm relocation support.  LP: #1926748.

grub2-unsigned (2.04-1ubuntu44.1.1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * debian/postinst.in: Unconditionally call grub-install with
    --force-extra-removable, so that the \EFI\BOOT removable path as used in
    cloud images receives the updates.  LP: #1930742.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * regression in xenial updates - grub2 cannot handle new relocations

   * grub-efi-arm64-bin gained new recommends on -signed package which
  is attempted to be installed

   * it pulls in one grub which was built with a newer toolchain and has
  more relocations

   * non-secureboot grub-install in xenial fails to install it when
  creating core.efi, because it does not know how to handle new
  relocations.

   * We need to cherrypick patches from 2.02 (which are in bionic+) to
  xenial & trusty.

  [Test Plan]

   * install new grub2-common grub-common

   * install grub-efi-arm64-signed from xenial-updates

   * package installation should be successful

   * this is executed as part of autopkgtest upgrades when testing any
  package on xenial in our autopkgtest cloud

  [Where problems could occur]

   * we are rebuilding grub2 which will have to go into security pocket
  eventually. Thus it's best to rebuild grub2 in security pocket.
