PS should have mentioned in Results of last testcase (repeat testcase 3)
1. After update, debconf-show grub-pc shows installed-devices: /dev/loop0
2. No wubildr on /host before or after test (expected)
3. Also, I rebooted into Ubuntu following the updates to confirm it worked (kind of
important to mention this)
--------------------------------------

Repeat of testcase 1 follows...

Testcase 1: Maverick 10.10 on E: drive (ntfs partition /dev/sda3)
=============================================
Grub version in wubildr at install 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu2
Grub version in Ubuntu at install 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3
Lupin-support version is 0.32
debconf-show grub-pc ---> install-devices: <blank>
Only grub.cfg and grubenv in /boot/grub
No wubildr on /host

Test method:
Add Proposed to sources,through synaptic (not running other updates)
Latest available version of grub-pc shown as 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3.3
Latest available version of lupin-support is 0.32.1
Select grub-pc (which includes grub-common) and lupin-support and
applied updates.

Expected result:
===========
1. wubildr on /dev/sda2 will be updated (that's on C:)
2. grub modules added to /boot/grub
3. /boot/grub/grub.cfg changed as expected with new modules present.
4. No prompt to install grub to /dev/sda

Results:
=====
1. wubildr on /dev/sda2 updated to 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3.3 and no /host/wubildr (expected)
2. grub modules added to /boot/grub as expected
3. /boot/grub/grub.cfg changed as expected
4. There was no prompt to install grub to /dev/sda
 (grub is now version 1.98+20100804-5ubuntu3.3 on Ubuntu)
5. debconf-show grub-pc install-devices: /dev/loop0
6. Rebooting into Ubuntu worked

Conclusion:
========
The test was successful.

PS as mentioned before - the same partition tests will be done later this evening. They probably aren't as critical since they worked before the lupin update anyway. But I'll do them to make sure there's no regression.
