Thanks. As I said, I installed ubuntu 12.10 long time ago and, yes, I used boot-repair at that point. I haven't used it since then and the configuration has been fine through all the previous upgrades (6 of them)  until now. It is in this sense that it might be an Ubuntu bug:  It used to be fine and the upgrade has broken things.
As I mention in a comment above, uncommenting one of the lines in the fstab allowed me to finish the upgrade but not to be able to boot the windows.

Title:
  Dual boot does not work after upgrade to 16.04

Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04. The process was not completed
  apparently due a problem with shim-signed. I now find the following
  message every time I try to update the system:

  Setting up shim-signed (1.12+0.8-0ubuntu2) ...
  Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
  grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory.
  dpkg: error processing package shim-signed (--configure):
   subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
  Errors were encountered while processing:
   shim-signed
  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

  Furthermore, I have a dual boot system with Windows and Ubuntu but
  only the latter works. Something seems to have gone south with UEFI. I
  attach the efibootmgr output. My /etc/fstab looks as follows
