Done :-)


I've uploaded a new build with a minor fix in grub-probe and genisoimage 
added to the dependencies:

sdesc: "GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2"
ldesc: "GRUB2 is a portable powerful bootloader. This version
of GRUB is based on a cleaner design than its predecessors.
This package contains a version built for the traditional
PC/BIOS architecture."
