Description

Talk to security to request and submit a properly signed shim

Shim is mean to be built on a stable distro, eg $Leap-.1. During the submission period to Microsoft it may not be possible to update some packages, eg binutils or openssl to make sure the build stays reproducible. After acquiring the new signature, submit shim to the stable distro to get it officially built and released. Fetch the rpm and put it in the "shim-leap" package for repacking in other code streams like $Leap and TW.

Therefore is there any pending work on shim side for openSUSE Leap
15.2?

not at the moment. We have several issues with the process of getting a new
signed shim. We try to resolve those but we only have limited control over
some parts of this.

For now you can reuse the existing shim. We will probably need to update
the existing shim due to some security issue in grub, but ATM we don't know
how to do that with the process as it currently is.
