Update of bug #35386 (project grub):

Follow-up Comment #1:

Even if kdm is installed it's not necessarily used. Erroring in one package
just because some other package may be misconfigured is unreasonable. Also it
may be that GRUB isn't the main bootloader even if grub-reboot is used. E.g.
if you odify another system mounted somewhere or just test GRUB as secondary
loader. Converserly grub-reboot may never be executed and so the check would
never happen. It's just wrong place to check for kdm config.

Also grub.cfg may be manually written and contents of default/grub isn't
significant in this case. Also if --boot-directory is given we have no idea
where the corresponding default/grub may be. Again exiting with error just
because of a sanity check which doesn't cover all possible usecases isn't good
