Package: gummiboot Version: 44-1 Severity: important gummiboot fails to install if there is a preexisting EFI boot loader in the fallback location (e.g. after a successful installation of Windows):
pkern@simplex ~ % sudo gummiboot install --path=/boot/efi Created /boot/efi/EFI/gummiboot. Copied /usr/lib/gummiboot/gummibootx64.efi to /boot/efi/EFI/gummiboot/gummibootx64.efi. Failed to rename /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/BOOTX64.EFI~ to /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/BOOTX64.EFI: File exists (Same for update, which is called from the postinst.) pkern@simplex ~ % find /boot/efi/EFI/Boot /boot/efi/EFI/Boot /boot/efi/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi The failure of »gummiboot update« is ignored in the postinst and hence ignores other failure cases upon installation as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-0.bpo.1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gummiboot depends on: ii libblkid1 2.20.1-5.3 ii libc6 2.18-4 Versions of packages gummiboot recommends: ii systemd 204-8~bpo70+1 gummiboot suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
