Title:
  kernel update hangs inside update-secureboot-policy

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I just ran `apt-get --auto-remove dist-upgrade` on 18.04.

  It is hung on update-secureboot-policy waiting for confirmation from
  whiptail.

UEFI Secure Boot requires additional configuration to work with  third-party drivers.  The system will assist you in configuring UEFI Secure Boot. To permit  the use of third-party drivers, a new Machine-Owner Key (MOK) has been  generated. This key now needs to be enrolled in your system's firmware.  To ensure that this change is being made by you as an authorized user,  and not by an attacker, you must choose a password now and then confirm  the change after reboot using the same password, in both the "Enroll  MOK" and "Change Secure Boot state" menus that will be presented to you  when this system reboots.  If you proceed but do not confirm the password upon reboot, Ubuntu will  still be able to boot on your system but any hardware that requires  third-party drivers to work correctly may not be usable. --scrolltext 20 77
