debian: remove pop-boot package
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This package was briefly used when we transitioned to kernelstub, however
it should not be installed on modern systems as it can cause random loss of
boot options (which, in extreme circumstances, may cause the boot to fail).
We should thus remove this package from the build as every supported version
of Pop_OS uses kernelstub by default (on EFI systems; legacy boot systems are
a non-issue because they won't/can't be transitioned to kernelstub/systemd-boot)

Fixes #54 (by removing the offending file altogether)
