[Bug 21412] Re: Default update-grub behaviour is not intuitive with respect to user modifications

Matt,

In my pre-upload tests, I did not find that the first upgrade to
0.97-29ubuntu7 triggered a ucf prompt except in the case where there was
already a detectable difference between the magic comments and the
kernel list.  This is AFAICS a necessary evil in order to get the
current state of the config file registered with ucf; waiting until the
first kernel upgrade only increases the chances of a ucf prompt that
might have oterwise been avoided, but it should not result in any
prompts where the menu.lst has not been locally modified.  Can you
provide a copy of a menu.lst that results in a prompt when you think it
shouldn't?
