Correct and you don't need it. It doesn't make sense to reinstall grub,
just to disable the automation, since if grub isn't installed at all,
there already is no automation you need to disable. You do not need to
reinstall grub. We, the community, Oli and I need to know what messages
you get when updating (while grub already is removed).

IIUC you still experience an issue when upgrading, right?

Or did I misunderstand you and there's another issue that is unrelated
to upgrades?
