<PRE> From grub2-2.00-18.mga3 the theme has been split into a separate 
package which is a Suggests, as is os-prober.

For most this difference will mean no change and the update should be 
seamless.

However, after the update to grub2-2.00-18.mga3 it will be possible to 
remove the theme simply by removing the grub2-mageia-theme package, 
which will reveal a plain text boot menu on the next boot.
This saves the overhead of many deps in a minimal installation.

Similarly installing grub2 with --no-suggests will achieve the same result.

os-prober may now also be added/removed at will which will have the 
effect of including or removing other detected OSes from the menu at the 
next boot.
(os-prober may also be disabled while remaining installed if required.)

Full details are available in the updated
/usr/share/doc/grub2/README.Mageia.
