[Bug 1600224] [NEW] shim-signed updates break self signed UEFI systems

[Tim Gardner]

Public bug reported:

Updating shim-signed on a self signed UEFI platform without Microsoft
keys is rendered unbootable. An example is a QEMU instance that is self
signed.

Isn't there a way to notify the platform owner that they should resign
their UEFI utilities before rebooting ?
