Title:
  update-secureboot-policy --enable does not work after dkms modules
  removed

Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  If I have disabled secureboot on my system via update-secureboot-
  policy due to the presence of dkms modules, but subsequently remove
  these dkms modules because I decide I don't like not having
  secureboot, I cannot re-enable SB by running 'update-secureboot-policy
  --enable'.

  I think either the check for /var/lib/dkms should only apply when
  update-secureboot-policy is called without arguments, or this check
  should be encoded in the shim-signed postinst so that manual calls
  from the commandline DWIM.
