[Bug 1194401] Re: unable to boot ubuntu with secure boot enabled and shim package does not exist

If you have installed with secureboot, the package you would have
installed is shim-signed, not shim.  So there's nothing unexpected here
from the shim package's perspective.

However, the apport hook shown here shouldn't error out in this way, but
instead fall through.

** Package changed: shim (Ubuntu) => apport (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu)
