Hello,

I'd like to get an fwupdate update sponsored into unstable.  It's been staged
in git (http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/uefi/fwupdate.git).

fwupdate (0.4-5) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ]
  * debian/patches/do-not-pesign: don't self-sign EFI binaries.
  * debian/control: dropped Build-Depends on pesign.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Backport 1c7f78 and 1c1218  to avoid errors if SHIM_DEBUG is missing.
  * Add myself to uploaders.

Looks fine by me, though is self-signing the binary actually causing 
problems?

Yes, I understand it's an issue for when it needs to be re-signed by MS to work with secure boot.  An unsigned or self-signed are functionally equivalent in a non-secure boot situation.
