Public bug reported:
Currently the dialogue box that appears when calling update-secureboot-
policy on a system with secure-boot enabled in bios will talk about
disabling "UEFI Secure Boot". This and the whole text sounded rather
like modifying the setting in bios than what is actually done (change
the shim mode). I don't know what would be a better description for it
but right now it sounds like it could lead to a lot of
misunderstandings.
One other thing which I cannot test as I currently have no secure-boot
dual boot system: the message about booting in non-secure boot is
displayed by shim before the grub screen. Does that mean secure-boot is
disabled for anything that is booted by grub? Because normally when I
had dual-boot, the selection is made on the grub selection screen which
then chainloads into either Windows or Linux.
