+Subject: [PATCH] grub-install on EFI if forced
+
+UEFI Secure Boot requires signed grub binaries to work, so grub-
+install should not be used. However, users who have Secure Boot
+disabled and wish to use the command should not be prevented from
+doing so if they invoke --force.
+
+fixes bz#1917213 / bz#2240994
