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

    -v, --version           print the version information and exit
    --modules=MODULES       pre-load specified modules MODULES
    --boot-directory=DIR    install GRUB images under the directory DIR/grub
                            instead of the /boot/grub directory

    --grub-probe=FILE       use FILE as grub-probe
    --no-floppy             do not probe any floppy drive
    --allow-floppy          Make the drive also bootable as floppy 
                            (default for fdX devices). May break on some BIOSes.
    --recheck               probe a device map even if it already exists
    --force                 install even if problems are detected
     --removable             the installation device is removable
     --bootloader-id=ID      the ID of bootloader.
     --uefi-secure-boot      install an image usable with UEFI Secure Boot
                             (only available if the grub-efi-amd64-signed
                             package is installed)
     --no-uefi-secure-boot   do not install an image usable with UEFI Secure
                             Boot, even if the system was currently started
                             using it

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

  grub-install copies GRUB images into /boot/grub, and uses grub-setup
  to install grub into the boot sector.
