So just to be sure, you're saying that this was an existing system which
was installed with 14.04 and was working fine, then after upgrade, it
stopped working?

Please attach to this bug:

 - a copy of /var/log/apt/term.log
 - a directory listing of /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/
 - the output of 'efibootmgr -v'

  On 2/07/2015 my Ubuntu 14.04 refused to boot because of the Secure
  Boot check failure. These are apt logs from the period before the
  failure:

  So I didn't even upgrade anything on that day (although I'm not sure
  when I rebooted). I'm on Dell E7440, Ubuntu is the only OS installed.
  When I switched off Secure Boot in bios, it booted fine. Is this an
  indication that my OS was tampered with? If not, might this be a bug?
