Package: xen-hypervisor-common
Version: 4.14.5+24-g87d90d511c-1
Severity: minor
File: /etc/default/grub.d/xen.cfg

Dear Maintainer,

When invoked via grub-mkconfig, xen.cfg outputs this as its first line:
        Including Xen overrides from /etc/default/grub.d/xen.cfg


The output of grub-mkconfig is expected to be redirected into a grub.cfg file.
Grub will read the grub.cfg at boot. Unfortunately, "Including" is not a
valid grub command. So when booting, grub emits this error message before
displaying its menu:
    error: can't find command `Including'.



The error message is obscured very quickly. It does not affect functionality
in any way. It requires booting on a VERY slow machine in order to read
the error message at all.


If I add a '#' to the start of the "Including", the resulting grub config file
boots with no error.
    echo "#Including Xen overrides from /etc/default/grub.d/xen.cfg"



I'm not sure if this line was intended to go into the generated config
file as a comment, or if it was intended to be shown to the user while
grub-mkconfig is running.


I have observed this and tested my fix against version
4.14.5+24-g87d90d511c-1 of xen-hypervisor-common. I have also checked
with the debian git at https://salsa.debian.org/xen-team/debian-xen/-/blob/master/debian/tree/xen-hypervisor-common/etc/default/grub.d/xen.cfg. This line
has not changed in a very long time.


I can also duplicate the behavior using grub-emu, with the output redirected
to a file.



Thanks for your time.
