Bug#75333: grub-install: -e: command not found

[Björn Torkelsson]

Package: grub
Version: 0.5.96.1
Severity: normal

When running grub-install I get the following errors:

/usr/sbin/grub-install: -e: command not found
/usr/sbin/grub-install: -e: command not found
/usr/sbin/grub-install: -e: command not found
/usr/sbin/grub-install: -e: command not found
Installation finished. No error reported.

The following patch solves the problem:
