Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal

Control: affects -1 + src:grub2
User: [email protected]
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package grub2

[ Reason ]

kernel.exec and *.image files in grub-pc-dbg had their debug info stripped by dh_strip.
So it makes them useless for debugging.
See bug #1072167

[ Impact ]

See above. Debugging of grub with the help of grub-*-dbg packages is useless.

[ Tests ]

Built .deb file was checked with `file` that they're indeed not stripped.

[ Risks ]

Only change is in d/rules the dh_strip call. Nothing else changed

[ Checklist ]
[X] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[X] attach debdiff against the package in testing

[ Other info ]
(Anything else the release team should know.)
