[Impact]
Shipping fwupdate in 15.04 (hardware enablement tool; a firmware updater tool) requires the use of gnu-efi >= 3.0.2.
[Test Case]
- Attempt to build fwupdate in 15.04.
Without gnu-efi >= 3.0.2, the build will fail to complete.
[Regression Potential]
Limited to EFI installations. Issues in efivar may incur specific failures at handling EFI variables; or when trying to build EFI images (which may show as unexpected behavior in these images).
However, gnu-efi 3.0.2 is already shipping in 15.10 and has not been causing issues. |

2) build shim and sbsigntool in 15.04.
3) verify that shim and sbsigntool run correctly when rebuilt against gnu-efi 3.0.2.
