[Bug 1724281] Re: package shim-signed 1.32~16.04.1+0.9+1474479173.6c180c6-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Your dpkg history shows:

Start-Date: 2017-10-06  18:21:17
Commandline: apt-get install virtualbox virtualbox-qt virtualbox-ext-pack
Requested-By: veeti (1000)
Install: libgsoap8:amd64 (2.8.28-1, automatic), virtualbox-dkms:amd64 (5.0.40-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.1, automatic), dkms:amd64 (2.2.0.3-2ubuntu11.3, automatic), virtualbox-ext-pack:amd64 (5.0.40-0ubuntu1.16.04.1), virtualbox:amd64 (5.0.40-dfsg

So you manually installed virtualbox using apt-get.  This should have
prompted you to make changes to disable secureboot on your system in
order to make the virtualbox kernel module usable.  Do you remember
being prompted about this?  The errors suggest that you did not answer
this prompt, but the log also doesn't suggest that the virtualbox
package failed to install at that time.
