It's good to see this problem has been taken care of. Still, "dpkg -s shim-signed" tells me I am using 1.3, not 1.5, and apt-get tells me I am using the latest version. At least my system booted despite the interrupted update from 13.04 to 13.10 but I do not know how up-to-date it is. Update-manager today gave me a general failure message but finds no more pending updates when I re-run it.
When I run apt-get upgrade I get the following (it is partly in Esperanto and partly in German; I try to give a translation): Elpakado de anstataŭanto libhud-client2:amd64 ... Ni prepariĝas por anstataŭigi hud 13.10.1+13.10.20131014-0ubuntu1 (uzante .../hud_13.10.1+13.10.20131024-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb) ... Elpakado de anstataŭanto hud ...
