I suppose this was shim-signed's update-secureboot-policy, which does:

        while true; do
            case "$STATE" in
            1)  
                db_capb
                db_fset shim/secureboot_explanation seen false
                db_input critical shim/secureboot_explanation || true
                db_go
        
                # Allow the user to skip disabling Secure Boot.
                db_fset shim/${action}_secureboot seen false
                db_input critical shim/${action}_secureboot || true
                ;;

so asking again seems to be on purpose. Plus it's called by both
debian/shim-signed.postinst and debian/shim-signed-common.postinst,
which might explain the double-tap, more than the presence of two DKMS
packages?

I can easily redo the installation if that's useful (I wasn't expecting
anything special, especially not a double prompt, so I didn't pause to
actually look into what was asking the question).

Cc-ing shim people, for informational purposes mostly.


Cheers,
