+ grub2 (1.95+20080116-1) unstable; urgency=low
+ 
+    * New CVS snapshot.
+      - update-grub ignores stale *.dpkg-* files.  (Closes: #422708, #424223)

+      using the $LET_US_TRY_GRUB_2 hack to reuse the same script both for
+      addition of core.img and its removal.
+    * grub-*.install: Add update-grub2 stub.  Packages providing /etc/grub.d/
+      scripts should invoke update-grub2 in both postinst and postrm (whenever
+      it is found, of course).

+      package descriptions.
+    * control (grub-ieee1275): Enable for i386/amd64.

  Can somebody sync with this?

  I don't know why the last time we did the sync we didn't get the
  binaries, but can somebody ensure that binaries happen this time around.
  Thank you.
