Hsy guys,

Sorry, I've not been updating bugs here enough to share progress.

I've had changes for this ready for some time, just not pushed yet.

The shim 16.0 release has already happened upstream, and it passes CI
for me locally.

*However*, we're waiting on a bugfix for

  https://github.com/rhboot/shim/issues/74

which is a show-stopper bug for secure boot chains where UKIs are
going to be a thing. A fix is coming Real Soon Now, I've been
promised. That's going to prompt a 16.1 release.

In the meantime, I really don't want to upload a 16.0 build, as that
makes things much more awkward in terms of the signing pipeline (etc.)
