Description: Secure Boot chain-loading bootloader (common helper scripts)
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.
.
This package contains common helper scripts for all versions of the
shim-signed package.
