 |
|
| I'm thinking about trying to set up secure boot and it seems I am missing binaries like "efi-readvar" and "efi-updatevar" when though I have "efitools" installed, which these are supposed to be a part of. I do have an "efivar" command, but it doesn't seem to replicate the behaviour of these other tools. I must be missing something important but I can't begin to guess what. |

app-crypt/efitools-1.9.2-r1 provides the following binaries for me:
| Code: | /usr/bin/efitool-mkusb
/usr/bin/flash-var
/usr/bin/cert-to-efi-hash-list
/usr/bin/efi-updatevar
/usr/bin/efi-readvar
/usr/bin/hash-to-efi-sig-list
/usr/bin/sign-efi-sig-list
/usr/bin/sig-list-to-certs
/usr/bin/cert-to-efi-sig-list |
verified by qlist -e efitools |

| Thanks for the message. It turns out I am an idiot and didn't actually have efitools installed. I had efibootmgr and just assumed it came from efitools. Whoops :/ |
