Bug#702800: grub-efi: Upgrade failed to install properly? symbol not found: grub_efi_secure_boot

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

Package: grub-efi
Version: 2.00-13
Severity: normal

i'm running grub from debian experimental on an EFI machine.  I
installed grub 2.00-13 on february 19th, but haven't rebooted from
then until yesterday.

When i booted, i got this failure from grub when invoking the "linux"
command:

  symbol not found: `grub_efi_secure_boot'

i suspect this means that my EFI image is out of date, but i'm a
little confused about why that would be.

i see that i have both of these files:

  /boot/efi/EFI/boot/bootx64.efi 
  /boot/efi/EFI/debian/grubx64.efi

but only the latter was updated on February 19th the other is much
older and the two files have different content.

This suggests that the upgrade process probably did the wrong thing,
but i'm not sure what went awry.

Thanks for maintaining grub in debian!
