### Fix Qubes issue
if command -v qubesctl > /dev/null && [ -f /boot/grub2/grubenv ] && [ -d /boot/efi/EFI/qubes ]; then
    sudo cp -f /boot/grub2/grubenv /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/grubenv
    logg success 'Copied /boot/grub2/grubenv to /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/grubenv'

### Ensure /boot/grub2/themes is directory
if [ ! -d /boot/grub2/themes ]; then
    sudo mkdir -p /boot/grub2/themes
    logg success 'Created /boot/grub2/themes'

### Copy GRUB theme to /boot/grub2/themes

### Set default GRUB screen resolution variables
SCREEN_RATIO_ULTRAWIDE="2100"
GRUB_RESOLUTION_TYPE="1080p"

### Determine screen size ratio (used for picking GRUB2 theme resolution)
if command -v xrandr > /dev/null && command -v uniq > /dev/null; then

    ### GRUB_BACKGROUND
    # Removed since the background should be flat black which is configurable
    # Leaving this code here in case we need to add a flat black image background for some reason
    # logg info 'Setting GRUB_BACKGROUND=/usr/local/share/grub/{{ .theme }}-blue.png in /etc/default/grub'

    ### Remove duplicate lines in /etc/default/grub
    logg info 'Ensuring there are no duplicate entries in /etc/default/grub'
