This patch may be wrong but it fixes the issue for me. I already tested
it on my actual system (not just VirtualBox).
Now to your comments:
1. shim is not dependency of grub2. My 18.04, 18.10 and 19.04 installations had
only these packages and no shim:
grub-common, grub2-common, grub-efi-amd64, grub-efi-amd64-bin
Shim is not required on non-SB systems. Ubuntu supported direct usage of
grub without shim since forever and I see no reason to drop such
support. If you're sure shim is required then make it dependency of the
grub.
I didn't use boot-repair. I simply updated from 19.04 (without shim) to
19.10 (still without shim) which broke chainload.
2. You're right. While I don't exactly understand what grub_loader_set() does:
grub_loader_set (grub_secureboot_chainloader_boot,
grub_secureboot_chainloader_unload, 0);
but I took a look at grub_secureboot_chainloader_boot() and it indeed
gets 0 from handle_image()/read_header() and expected to call
grub_load_and_start_image(). However on my system the latest log record
comes from:
grub_dprintf ("chain", "Secure Boot is not enabled\n");
and then I guess from grub_load_and_start_image() it immediately goes
back to the menu.
