- Skip issuing cursor on/off sequences on Macs (closes: #683068).
- Move grub-mknetdir to /usr/bin (closes: #688799).
- Apply program name transformations at build-time rather than at
run-time (closes: #696465).
- Add info documentation for grub-mount (closes: #666427).
- Clean up dangling references to grub-setup (LP: #1082045).
- Avoid installing to sectors matching the signature of an Acer
registration utility with several sightings in the wild (LP: #987022).
- Document the need for GRUB_DEFAULT=saved in grub-set-default(8)
(LP: #1102925).
- Fix missing PVs if they don't contain an "interesting" LV (probably
closes: #650724, #707613).
- Reimplement grub-reboot to not depend on saved_entry (closes: #707695,
LP: #704406).
- Fix Ctrl-u handling to copy the killed characters to the kill buffer
as UCS4 stored as grub_uint32_t rather than as 8-bit characters stored
as char (closes: #710076).
- Fix inconsistent use of GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE and
GRUB_ENABLE_CRYPTODISK (LP: #1232237).
- Support GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU configuration, and document submenu usage
in grub-reboot(8) (closes: #690538).
- Don't decompress initrd when booting with Xen (closes: #700197).
- Document how to delete the whole environment block (closes: #726265).
- Revamp hidden timeout handling by adding a new timeout_style
environment variable and a corresponding GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE
configuration key for grub-mkconfig. This controls hidden-timeout
handling more simply than the previous arrangements, and pressing any
hotkeys associated with menu entries during the hidden timeout will
now boot the corresponding menu entry immediately (LP: #1178618). As
part of merging this, radically simplify the mess that
quick_boot.patch had made of /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober; if it finds
other OSes it can now just set timeout_style=menu and make sure the
timeout is non-zero.
- On Linux, read partition start offsets from sysfs if possible
(LP: #1237519).
- New ports to arm-uboot, arm-efi, arm64-efi, i386-xen, and x86_64-xen.
* Add grub-uboot*, grub-efi-arm*, and grub-xen* binary packages.
* Ignore functional test failures for now as they are broken.
* Move working directories around (build/<package> -> obj/<package>,
build/stamps -> debian/stamps) so that "debian/rules build" still works
after working directories have been created.
* Drop "grub-mkrescue --diet" option; never merged upstream and only
matters for floppies. Please let me know if you were using this.
Explicitly use -no-pad to build grub-rescue-floppy.img, which has an
equivalent effect on size.
* Break lupin-support (<< 0.55) due to the rewrite of grub-install in C.

- Temporarily make linuxefi refuse to validate kernels in the absence of
a shim, until we get some other details worked out.
- Automatically call linuxefi from linux if secure boot is enabled and
the kernel is signed, to hand over to the kernel without calling
ExitBootServices. Otherwise, linux will fall through to previous
code, call ExitBootServices itself, and boot the kernel normally.
