@Ivan, I update how grub-check-signatures use mokutils in bug description.
Can you please check again?

** Description changed:

- as turn on secure boot, we need mokutil.
+ as turn on secure boot, the postinst script to do configure will call
+ mokutils. if mokutils is not installed, it will fail.
  
- the signed package is for secure boot. It should recommend mokutil so
- that when dkms is installed, we can have it.
+ Base on that, maybe grub-efi-amd64-signed should depend on mokutils.
+ 
+ The postinst script call /usr/share/grub/grub-check-signatures from
+ grub-common package. grub-check-signatures call mokutils to extract key
+ and use the key to check if then kernel is properly signed.

       Status: Won't Fix => Confirmed
