Reassigning to mokutil and marking Fix Released:

I fixed that a few weeks ago. Mokutil reports the state it knows how to,
and that was previously only checking the state of the SecureBoot-*
variable, which is separate from the state that can be toggled in shim.

Now, mokutil looks at SecureBoot, SetupMode, and the MokSBStateRT
variable (the one set by shim), and should display an appropriate
message depending on the exact state of the system.

** Package changed: grub2 (Ubuntu) => mokutil (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: mokutil (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

Title:
  mokutil --sb-state reports SecureBoot enabled when it isn't

Status in mokutil package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  mokutil --sb-state

  says

  SecureBoot enabled

  But I've followed the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UEFI/SecureBoot/DKMS to disable SecureBoot and I get the message that I'm booting in insecure made at startup. In fact, running unsigned mainline kernel.
