Comment 8 for bug 1599051

This bug was fixed in the package shim-signed - 1.17

---------------
shim-signed (1.17) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * update-secureboot-policy: rework setting capabilities to stop having
    the backup capability while showing an error message; which won't affect
    the Dialog debconf frontend but otherwise made the GTK frontend confusing.
  * update-secureboot-policy: all debconf prompts should be at priority
    critical: there is no good default to pick, we must prompt the user.
  * debian/templates: make the password inputs be standard inputs; this is an
    unfortunate workaround to aptdaemon not having access to the debconf
    password database on desktop; since the frontend runs as an unprivileged
    user. See bug LP#1599981 (LP: #1599051)
