Changelog

shim (0~20120906.bcd0a4e8-0ubuntu4) quantal-proposed; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/shim-before-loadimage: Use direct verification first
    before LoadImage.  Addresses an issue where Lenovo's SecureBoot
    implementation pops an error message on any verification failure - avoid
    calling LoadImage at all unless we have to.

shim: boot loader to chain-load signed boot loaders under Secure Boot

 This package provides a minimalist boot loader which allows verifying
 signatures of other UEFI binaries against either the Secure Boot DB/DBX or
 against a built-in signature database. Its purpose is to allow a small,
 infrequently-changing binary to be signed by the UEFI CA, while allowing
 an OS distributor to revision their main bootloader independently of the CA.
