Title:
  package grub-efi-amd64-signed 1.202.5+2.12-1ubuntu7.3 failed to
  install/upgrade: installed grub-efi-amd64-signed package post-
  installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

Status in grub2-signed package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This error occurred when running a do-release-upgrade on my VPS from
  22.04 to 24.04. I appear to have both grub-efi and grub-pc installed
  and on first look I am wondering whether grub-efi has been added when
  not suitable for a VPS. The dummy grub-efi package has not been
  installed, just the grub-efi-amd64-bin and grub-efi-amd64-signed
  packages (the latter of which is listed as failed). The shim-signed
  package is also failing to configure.
