*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

grub updates are built against security only (as can be checked in the
build log), published to proposed, updates to complete SRU process and
phasing, with intention to publish to security.

In theory this should be done, once phasing on these packages is
complete.

But I don't believe we have any automated process to detect that today.

As brought up by Mark Esler, here is explicit promotion request:

$ rmadison grub2-signed | grep updates
 grub2-signed | 1.187.3~20.04.1 | focal-updates    | source
 grub2-signed | 1.187.3~22.04.1 | jammy-updates    | source

$ rmadison grub2-unsigned | grep updates
 grub2-unsigned | 2.06-2ubuntu14.1   | focal-updates    | source
 grub2-unsigned | 2.06-2ubuntu14.1   | jammy-updates    | source

$ rmadison shim | grep updates
 shim | 15.7-0ubuntu1                  | focal-updates   | source, amd64, arm64
 shim | 15.7-0ubuntu1                  | jammy-updates   | source, amd64, arm64

$ rmadison shim-signed | grep updates | grep source
 shim-signed | 1.40.9                                | focal-updates   | source
 shim-signed | 1.51.3                                | jammy-updates   | source
