Title:
  grub2 FTBFS on amd64 and i386 due to test failures

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in seabios package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Something in the archive caused grub2 to start to FTBFS in cosmic as
  seen in the 2.02-2ubuntu9 version currently in cosmic-proposed:

  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/2.02-2ubuntu9

  A no-change rebuild of 2.02-2ubuntu8 also fails in the same way.

  After some basic investigation, I have noticed that possibly something
  changed in qemu between bionic and cosmic, causing qemu-system-i386 to
  print out SeaBIOS output to the serial console. Some of the tests
  depend on reading output of qemu-system-i386 (through the serial
  console) and those are now failing as it is all prepended with bios
  output - while in bionic it was not. This might be only one part of
  the problem though.
