a/efibootmgr-18-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
a/grub-2.12-x86_64-16.txz: Rebuilt.
Long ago, we began giving all the scripts in /etc/grub.d/ the .new treatment
to prevent local customizations from being overwritten with a package
upgrade. But, this no longer appears to be a good idea, especially if we're
ever going to offer the possibility to automate grub-install and grub-update.
So, we are no longer going to preserve the contents of these files when the
grub package is upgraded. We *will* however preserve the existing
permissions, so you'll be able to turn off scripts that you don't want
running, and you'll be able to make new scripts, or make edited and renamed
copies of the scripts shipped in this package, so there's no real loss of
functionality here.
It looks like 40_custom is intended to be locally edited, so we make an
exception and do not overwrite that one.
