Follow-up Comment #4, bug #40323 (project grub): As for djvu it's optional and needed only for theme. configure auto-detects its presence with no way to disable it manually. Therefore, in order to consistently build a package, I must ensure that DejaVu is always present at build time. If

[bug #35937] grub-2 - Please add possibility of 'root=PARTUUID=' statement into grub.cfg via grub-mkconfig

2012-11-13 Thread Mike GIlbert
Follow-up Comment #2, bug #35937 (project grub): I believe that grub-probe would need to be modified to get the partition UUID from the GPT. Once that is in place, modifying 10_linux to pass that value on the kernel command line should be simple.

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #35880 (project grub): Right, so your point is that *other* applications have English translations. Is such a thing in the works for GRUB? If not, maybe you could just add an empty translation for English to prevent the error message from happening at boot.

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #35880 (project grub): I think the main issue is that the error is misreported; it should tell the user that the en_US dialect is missing, rather than complaining about a base en translation that will never exist.
