Once again, this report is invalid because it does not describe a defect
in the software that needs fixed.  Once again, the problem with your
installation is that grub-pc/install_devices was not set so the system
did not know that it needed to run grub-install to reinstall grub on
that disk after upgrading the grub files in /boot/grub.

As Mathias noticed, this happens to "power users".  This is because you
know enough to be able to install grub yourself, which gets it working
at the time, but leaves grub-pc/install_devices incorrect so it will
break on upgrade.  You need to use dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc instead, so
that grub-pc/install_devices will be set correctly and grub-install will
be run automatically on upgrade.

Baby, if the installer fails to install grub, then it should file a new
bug report about that and we can investigate.
