Version: 257.6-1
Severity: minor

Dear developer,
By default `systemd-boot` EFI binary is copied in `EFI/systemd`. This
works perfectly well for booting, but unfortunately, `fwupdmgr` is
unable to find the shim when it tries to prepare the next boot for a
firmware update.
It seems that it expects to find the shim in the same directory than the
bootloader. Copying the shim to `EFI/systemd` is sufficient to fix the
problem.
If you think that it should be `fwupdmgr`'s job to put more effort to
find the shim, feel free to reassign.
Regards,
