This is the state pre-#910959, so grub2-common does not yet include the file. This means all binary packages that install grub need to ship them separately, that's what grub-cloud-amd64 does. > I'm happy to add Breaks/Replaces, but first the version of > grub-cloud-amd64 in stretch-backports needs to be fixed to stop > hijacking grub2-common's conffiles. After that has been done, I would > be happy to add Breaks/Replaces on grub-cloud-amd64 (<< fixed-version). There is not way to define Breaks/Replaces relations that only match on the package variant in backports. Maybe I'll try to add a dependency grub2-common (<= fixed-#910959). Otherwise it's going to be ignored. Regards, Bastian -- Most legends have their basis in facts. -- Kirk, "And The Children Shall Lead", stardate 5029.5
