Package: src:xen Version: 4.11.4+57-g41a822c392-1 Severity: normal When removing the Xen packages, the grub menu entries to boot should be removed.
Currently, thanks to a missing postfix of a postrm filename... xen-hypervisor-V-F.postrm vs. xen-hypervisor-V-F.postrm.vsn-in ...this script is ignored and not installed. This is the maintainer script that contains the update-grub command. The result of this packaging bug is that after removing Xen, the system remains unbootable, except when interacting manually with the grub menu. I'd like to also apply the fix to Debian stable since: * The script was there before, the bug was introduced during a refactoring in the Xen 4.11 packaging. * The fix is very small and targeted. * It's rather embarrasing to cause a system to be unbootable for someone. * We cannot require all Debian users to have proper OOB in place to deal with a situation like this.
