[Bug 1582320] Re: Problem detected upon boot/login

[Steve Langasek]

Sorry, when you say "upgrade or reinstall", what do you mean?  You mean
you saw this error on an upgrade, and also again after reinstalling the
system?

The error message shows that you are installing the shim-signed package
on a system that is not booted in EFI mode.  We should fix this to not
return an error (but such a fix is dependent on first fixing bug
#1366546).  But why is shim-signed being installed on your system, if
the system is not booted in efi mode?  Have you somehow requested this
package?

The dpkg logs attached to your bug report are not particularly
illuminating.
