Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub-pc
=== PROBLEM ===
While upgrading grub-pc to karmic-proposed I got following errors/warnings.
After installation my version is: grub-pc 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu5
=== WORK AROUND ===
This errors seem to not cause any problems.
(still I need to reboot after upgrade - if you see this message and comments is
over 1 hour old, then something made my PC unbootable ;)
=== MORE INFO ===
/dev/sde seems to be uhm, my USB printer (probably its the SD cards reader or
something)
