[Bug 568649] Re: Missing quotes in parts of /etc/default/grub

This option only effects how your Ubuntu system is booted.  When
detecting other operating systems, whatever boot method their grub
config uses will be reused.  In other words, if debian is booting using
a UUID, Ubuntu will also boot it using that UUID.

Title:
  Missing quotes in parts of /etc/default/grub

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  There are missing double quotes in /etc/default/grub. If you change a
  line where the option is not in double quotes...i.e.

  # Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux
  GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

  then update-grub ignores it.
  The (true) has to be in double quotes for update-grub to include the option...
  even then it'll drops the UUIDs for Ubuntu...but not for any other OS it finds.

  I know...that's what it does on my system.
