Public bug reported:

package: shim-signed, shim

release:  Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS

version: shim-signed:amd64 1.37~18.04.1+15+1533136590.3beb971-0ubuntu1
 shim:amd64 15+1533136590.3beb971-0ubuntu1

expected: grub menu loading xubuntu and windows in dualboot

happened: loading xubuntu works, loading windows failes (no error - black screen - no hard disc light flashing)
I uninstalled shim, shim-signed, disabled 'bionic-updates' and installed old versions 
shim-signed:amd64 1.34.9.2+13-0ubuntu2
shim:amd64 13-0ubuntu2
and boot works well like before.

I enabled 'bionic-updates' and installed the newer versions without
error and again chainloading of windows fails.
