[Bug 1925010] Re: shim-signed 15.4 does not boot on EFI 1.10 systems

Should I still be getting "No new release found." when trying to upgrade
an xubuntu 20.10 system to 21.04?

It's a bit odd since I have two systems running xubuntu, I upgraded one
a few days ago from 20.10 to 21.04 (using do-release-upgrade) but the
other system still keeps saying "No new release found." when I run do-
release-upgrade.

Did this fix get released and then un-released or something?

Title:
  shim-signed 15.4 does not boot on EFI 1.10 systems

Status in shim package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in shim source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in shim source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Released
Status in shim-signed source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The latest update on Hirsute made the MacBook Air from 2012
  unbootable.

  It could be recovered by booting a 20.04 live CD, downloading 20.04's
  shim package and overwriting the files in EFI/ubuntu and EFI/BOOT with
  the files shipped in the shim package.

  Machines Affected (not comprehensive):
  MacBookPro8,2
  MacBookAir5,2

  [Test case]
  For a system that has applied the workaround from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim/+bug/1925010/comments/14 and is bootable:

  - install shim-signed from hirsute-proposed
  - reboot
  - verify that the system now boots without workaround

  This test case applies only to hirsute.  For all other series, there
  has been no regression, and because this is the same binary across all
  series, no other SRU testing is required.
