Ugh what a mess. I'm posting what happened and why in case anyone else
stumbles into this.
I sync'd portage on Saturday. Then on yesterday I tweaked a kernel
config setting and grub.conf. When I tried to 'make install' I got an
error that update-grub was not found and would I like to make a boot
disk.
After much digging I tracked it down to debianutils-2.18. The
/sbin/mkboot it installs wants to use update-grub to modify grub.conf,
but debianutils-2.18 does not install update-grub.
It appears that for a brief period Saturday debianutils-2.18 was
released unmasked.
It's fixed now, but i spent a large chunk of yesterday tearing my hair
out trying to figure how I
screwed up the kernel (suspend2-sources) and/or grub.
Another sync will set things right with debianutils-2.18 arch masked.
