This problem is worse than that, because GRUB packaging assumes that these symlinks will stay valid across OS upgrades as well. Getting rid of the reliance on these links will be among my first plans for 25.04 cycle, but this seems like a case of "we will never break userspace, except when it's convenient". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2083176 Title: grub-efi/install_devices becoming stale due to by-id/nvme-eui.* symlinks disappearing Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: A family member just sent me this dialog that popped up when they installed their updates today. I'm not sure how a regular user is supposed to be able to handle what is presented here. Do they check the box? What happens if they don't? Heck, even I don't know what the proper action is here. This dialog box needs to be removed and a safe default needs to be applied automatically during upgrades.
