Ugh what a mess. I'm posting what happened and why in case anyone else |
| 2 |
stumbles into this. |

I sync'd portage on Saturday. Then on yesterday I tweaked a kernel |
| 5 |
config setting and grub.conf. When I tried to 'make install' I got an |
| 6 |
error that update-grub was not found and would I like to make a boot |
| 7 |
disk. |

|

After much digging I tracked it down to debianutils-2.18. The |
| 10 |
/sbin/mkboot it installs wants to use update-grub to modify grub.conf, |
| 11 |
but debianutils-2.18 does not install update-grub. |

It appears that for a brief period Saturday debianutils-2.18 was |
| 14 |
released unmasked. |

It's fixed now, but i spent a large chunk of yesterday tearing my hair |
| 17 |
out trying to figure how I |
| 18 |
screwed up the kernel (suspend2-sources) and/or grub. |

Another sync will set things right with debianutils-2.18 arch masked. |
