[Bug 1250611] Re: shim-signed update unrecognized option

[Benny]

I have the error in Ubuntu 13.10. Has a fix been released there too?

Error:
Updating /boot/grub/menu.lst ... done

INSTALL_DEVICE can be a GRUB device name or a system device filename.

grub-install copies GRUB images into the DIR/boot directory specfied by
--root-directory, and uses the grub shell to install grub into the boot
sector.

Title:
  shim-signed update unrecognized option

Status in “shim-signed” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I am having a macbook with ubuntu 12.04. Just did sudo-apt-get update;
  sudo apt-get upgrade; This installs an updated version of the package
  shim-signed.

  However, upon updating shim-signed, grub complains that it cannot
  recognize the option `--target=x86_64-efi'. Seems very related to a
  recent update on shim-signed that has been pushed recently,
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1242417.

  Below the resulting error message:

  sudo apt-get update;

  Reading state information... Done

  1 not fully installed or removed.
  After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.
