It looks to me as if this was only ever fixed for 42.1. It was not fixed for Tumbleweed, and it appears to be back in 42.2.
My tests with 42.2 GM image did not have the problem, would you please double check ? For Tumbleweed, somehow the old shim package is still in use [1], so that the fix is missing, though the patch has been submitted to Factory since half a year ago.

Admittedly, it is a relatively minor problem. But it should be fixed. Or, at least, it should be closed with WONTFIX rather than FIXED, since the problem is still there. The bug was originally reported for Tumbleweed, not for 42.1.
Needinfo Gary, I heard from him Tumbleweed is particularly difficult to update shim to latest signed one from Microsoft because the rolling release makes the binary changes all the time if new library and gcc versions introduced to factory.

Shim wasn't updated in Tumbleweed due to a mistake and I filed boo#1007238. In the future, we probably will use the shim binary from Leap for Tumbleweed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
