Title:
  Calamares based flavours do not set grub-{efi,pc}/install_devices
  debconf

Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in calamares source package in Noble:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This debconf is required to be set for grub package reinstallations
  (especially grub-pc) to work correctly.

  This was masked in the 23.10 cycle due to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1889556.

  That workaround was removed in the 24.04 cycle in
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/2043995.

  This will result in Calamares based installs throwing debconf prompt
  at the user to choose a GRUB install device upon GRUB package
  upgrades.
