[Bug 2032586] Re: [3.0][bug] Missing a 'grub-install' settings for classic image

[Mate Kukri]

1. Do we know when this issue was introduced?
2. Do we know if any released Ubuntu images are affected by this? (This should have been a release critical bug for such images).

It seems to me that all images on https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ are built
using livecd-rootfs and are unaffected (albeit still relying on the
possible deprecated grub_dpkg cloud_init module).

My main concern currently is OEM images.

Title:
  [3.0][bug] Missing a 'grub-install' settings for classic image

Status in Ubuntu Image:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  We found if the classic image, which is generated by ubuntu-image 3.0,
  uses grub-efi as its boot assets, the classic environment can't update
  its shim.efi and grub.efi files correctly by "sudo apt upgrade".

  Because its grub Debian package manifest settings are not correct.
  Please reference the description from livecd-rootfs: https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/buildd/hooks/02-disk-image-uefi.binary?h=applied/ubuntu/jammy-devel#n101

  Could ubuntu-image 3.0 support to setup correct grub Debian package
  manifest?

  [Reproduce steps]
  1. Build an amd64 classic image that uses grub-efi boot assets
  2. Bootup image and make sure there is a newer shim-signed and grub-efi-amd64-signed
  3. "sudo apt update" and "sudo apt upgrade" to update newer shim-signed and grub-efi-amd64-signed
  4. Check the checksum result for /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi and grubx64.efi
  5. The checksum result still the old version, not newer version
