It appears you have dkms modules installed and it was determined that
you needed to be prompted to register a MOK in your firmware, but
because the gnome session crashed, taking the upgrader frontend with it,
you could not be prompted, leading to this error.

This does look like a bug in shim-signed, though.  The intent of this
code is that we should only error out if there are *added* dkms modules
and we don't have a MOK.  In this case, there are only *removed*
modules.  So it should not be considered an error, but the code doesn't
actually distinguish between additions and removals.

To work around this failure, you should run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
from a terminal to follow the prompts and fully enroll a MOK.
