Run script after apt-get updates grub
up vote

I use Debian 9 on an EFI system with a custom grub image and configuration file in order to make Secure Boot work. However, whenever apt-get updates Grub my customizations get overriden.
What is the best solution for this? I do not want to prevent grub from updating, as there might be security updates. I have a script that creates my customizations. Is there a way to run that every time apt-get updates grub?
Unfortunately, I cannot find much information on this, as the Google results are just cluttered with people running into grub update error messages.

Can you clarify exactly what is custom and how you create it?

The grub image (grubx64.efi) is custom, I created it with grub-mkstandalone.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't understand how this would help. If I create a custom trigger it wouldn't be called by the grub package when it is installed, because it doesn't know about my trigger.
