(unattended-upgrade, already-installed dkms modules) package shim-signed 1.28+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Thank you for the report. This shows that you had an unattended upgrade that ran and upgraded the version of the nvidia dkms module that you have installed; and that this triggered a request from shim to disable SecureBoot on your system, because dkms modules are incompatible with SecureBoot currently.

Do you remember being prompted previously about turning off SecureBoot? Did you elect not to turn off SecureBoot? Or, did you choose the option to disable SecureBoot, but not confirm this selection on reboot?

Thanks for the reply I have since successfully upgraded

I'm glad you were able to upgrade. It is still important to us to understand how your system got into this state, so that we can help solve the problem for other users. Do you remember handling SecureBoot on your system previously?

Sorry don't remember, but it certainly did this time when it succeeded

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

some news about this?
