During the build `grub-install --target=i386-pc /dev/loop3` is called which calls `/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/modinfo.sh` and `/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/modinfo.sh` is from package `grub-pc-bin` but `grub2-common` which is where `grub-install` is from does not depend on `grub-pc-bin` so this now fails with error ``` grub-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/modinfo.sh doesn't exist. Please specify --target or --directory. ``` We are seeing this now on xenial as `grub-pc-bin` is now removed during build as part of fixing bug LP#2036195 as `grub-pc-bin` is being purged as an autoremovable package. The reason `grub-pc-bin` is autoremovable is because the `grub-pc` package was removed when `apt-get install -qqy grub-efi-amd64-signed grub-efi-amd64 shim-signed` as `grub-efi-amd64` replaces `grub-pc`. We are not seeing this on newer releases as `grub-pc` is still installed, and thus, so too is `grub-pc-bin` There were previous changes in this area [1] related to grub installs which would have resolved this issue as part of LP#1901906 but they were reverted for xenial [2][3] Without making further grub changes the solution is to mark `grub-pc- bin` as manually installed so even if `grub-pc` is removed the `grub- pc-bin` is not marked autoremovable.
