grub2 1.96+20090523-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

grub2 (1.96+20090523-1ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    + debian/control:
      - Depend on rather than Suggest os-prober; Ubuntu version does not
        suffer from the mount problem that prevents Debian from marking this
      	Depends.
    + debian/default/grub
      - Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options.
      - Use new GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT option to set "quiet splash" for
        default items only.  These options won't be set in single user mode.
    + debian/patches/03_ubuntu_grub_standards
      - Remove GNU/Linux from default string.
  * debian/legacy/update-grub: Apply Ubuntu branding: title, recovery mode,
    quiet option, and tweak how memtest86+ is displayed.

  [ Andy Whitcroft ]
  * debian/legacy/update-grub: fix generation to use the uuid command for
    the root specifier when the groot is a UUID.  Use the same test as is
    used in the 'grub' package.  LP: #376879
