Title:
  error processing grub-efi-amd64 (2.00-13ubuntu3) in 13.04

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After a Windows install, I ran in to boot problems and tried running
  boot-repair. That's when I first encountered this error. That has been
  previously reported in Bug #1175018 (and one other bug, I think).

  However, after running boot-repair, I was able to boot the linux install on my hard drive. (It wasn't quite the same as before; there was no splash screen.) However, I'm stilling having the error. For example:
  ----------------------------

  Purging and then attempting to install again doesn't help.
