[Bug 1098952] [NEW] grub_efi_secure_boot symbol not found after update to grub 1.99-21ubuntu3.7

[Bruce R. Copeland]

Public bug reported:

On a working HP ENVY m4-1015dx system using UEFI without secure boot,
the system is unable to boot into Ubuntu 12.04 from OS Boot Manager
following update to grub 1.99-21ubuntu3.7. The grub 1.99-21ubuntu3.7
menu appears correctly. However, selecting any ubuntu kernel generates
the error:

symbol not found: `grub_efi_secure_boot'.

The system will boot successfully into Windows 8 from the same grub
menu. The system also boots successfully to ubuntu from other BIOS boot
options: Ubuntu (WDC ...) or Boot from EFI File and then selection of
the file EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi. Either of these latter successful boot
options produce a grub menu that appears identical to the earlier-
mentioned grub menu, but these boot successfully. At least two other
individuals using different hardware have reported analogous problems on
the forums (ie. systems using UEFI but NOT secure boot). These problems
may depend to some extent on the BIOS, but they do not appear to be
unique to this particular hardware.
