** Description changed: [ Impact ] * The aim of this bug is to stop using the package cd-boot-images-* in noble. This has been done for plucky in LP: #2086841. This is similar, but an SRU. + * Cd-boot-images caused a duplication of binary bootloader assets, resulting + in increased workload for maintainer, and often outdated bootloader assets + ending up in ISO images. Stopping their use will avoid that in future point + release ISOs. [ Test Plan ] * Current Noble images are built by debian-cd using cd-boot-images-*. Once the a grub2 containing the MP https://code.launchpad.net/~adrianoco/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+git/grub2/+merge/486661 is out and a change to debian-cd not to use cd-boot-images-* is out we can test building daily iso images. All this has already been tested locally (a version of grub2 with the changes can be found in the ppa https://launchpad.net/~adrianoco/+archive/ubuntu/grubppa) [ Where problems could occur ] - * There could be reverse dependencies to cd-boot-images-*. This should be - checked before removing the package, if removed. - [ Other Info ] * Tasks: - Provide pre-built BIOS and IEEE1275 El-Torito images in grub2 (MP: https://code.launchpad.net/~adrianoco/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+git/grub2/+merge/486661) - Change debian-cd not to use cd-boot-images-* (waiting for grub2 to be ready to send a MP for this)
