[Bug 1273871] Re: grub-efi-amd64=2.02~beta2-5 produces invalid .efi files, rendering system unbootable

[Ben A]

I ran apport-collect with /proc, /sys, and /boot/efi mounted in the
chroot, as the collection ubuntu-bug got looked really sparse.

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  The EFI firmware refuses to recognize the .efi files from this version,
  presenting an empty boot menu and refusing to continue. efibootmgr shows
  the "ubuntu" option existing but it's not available in the EFI
  interface.
