Confirmed :) What is the commit that fixed?

[Bug 1692235] Re: Syntax error in .postinst - broken package
"Android Dev" over on the Ubuntu forums posted
-
https://askubuntu.com/questions/917395/grub-post-installation-fails/917423#917423
It is pointed out there that in fact there is a semi-colon missing here! didn't
see it myself
{{{
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.10 then
^
;
}}}
After adding it, I can too confirm it resolves the syntax error.

[Bug 1692235] Re: Syntax error in .postinst - broken package
"me too"
{{{

}}}
This is the block it's complaining about:
{{{
if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.10 then
if [ -e "/boot/efi/EFI/${bootloader_id}/fbx64.efi" ]; then
rm -f "/boot/efi/EFI/${bootloader_id}/fbx64.efi";
fi
fi<---
HERE
}}}
However there are no syntax errors that I can see in this shell script.
Working backwards a bit, I added a debug echo just above that;
-> echo statement doesn't get hit
Added another statement just above the previous block
{{{
grub-efi-ia32|grub-efi-amd64|grub-efi-ia64|grub-efi-arm|grub-efi-arm64)
bootloader_id="$(config_item GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR | tr A-Z a-z | \
cut -d' ' -f1)"
case $bootloader_id in
kubuntu) bootloader_id=ubuntu ;;
esac
}}}
And it borked there
/var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-pc.postinst: line 694: syntax error near unexpected
token `"fermmy:DEBUG: foo"'
