Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-Cc: none, Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen@err.no>

Looks like postinst is poking into /sys/firmware/efi, which doesn't
exist on a non-UEFI system.

(It's a fair question to ask «why are you installing it here?», in this
particular case, it's a bug, but one could very well be doing this as a
part of migrating from legacy to UEFI boot.)

Source: shim-signed
Source-Version: 1.35

Fixed this in unstable - see #986059. Just waiting for a little more
testing before doing another rounds of buster uploads with the same
code.
