Title:
  Update Manager did not perform requested action for user modified GRUB
  file

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installing Precise Pangolin I changed /etc/default/grub by
  uncommenting "GRUB_TERMINAL=console" so that I could see the boot
  menu. I dual boot Windows XP and without this change, no menu is
  displayed (Precise comes up after menu time out). This week's updates
  had a new version of this file so, when prompted, I requested a side
  by side comparison of the files, fully intending to install the new
  version and go back and make this change as necessary. Instead, no
  comparison was shown and the existing file was left untouched.  The
  request should have been honored and either followed with another
  prompt for installing the file or automatically making the new file
  available somewhere.
