[Bug 1928011] Re: grub-efi-amd64-signed: Depends: grub2-common (>= 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.31) but 2.04-1ubuntu26.11 is to be installed

Yes, it is:

$ dpkg --compare-versions 2.04-1ubuntu26.11 gt 2.02~beta2-36ubuntu3.31; echo $?
0
$

So I don't see what the problem here is based on the information
available.

Did this error happen as part of a release upgrade between two releases,
or package upgrades within a release?  We will need more logs in order
to diagnose but the answer to the previous question establishes which
logs we need.
