DetailsDescription:
If people use linux-grsec and linux-hardend replaces linux-grsec no grub-mkconfig is made. On reboot, fresh system boot, grub searchs for the grsec kernel and doesn't find it. I think a posthook is missing, triggering grub-mkconfig or simlar command. Steps to reproduce: 1. pacman -S linux-grsec 2. pacman -Syu 3. pacman replaces linux-grsec with linux-hardend 4. reboot 5. Grub has troubles |

Reason for closing: Not a bug
Additional comments about closing: This is how it was intended to happen. It would have been nice to write a post-install message and/or a news item but there's limited time and no one has had interest in helping. A patch adding a post-install message for the linux-grsec upgrade case would still be accepted but it's a bit late.

Yeah, it probably shouldn't have "replaces" in the PKGBUILD.

It wasn't intended to be an intervention-free automatic migration, only a way to providing notification that Arch's linux-grsec package is dead and gone with linux-hardened as the only replacement. I didn't write a guide for the post-install message because I thought what was going on was straightforward. I don't want grub configuration integration.
