Currently shopping for ideas and opinons on how `sbctl` should approach the revocation list in Secure Boot (`dbx`).

https://github.com/Foxboron/sbctl/issues/23

Feel free to come with ideas but trying to keep things simple is the goal here.

@Foxboron Do you think sbctl could be inducted as part of core systemd? It feels like a good fit.

I just discovered this tool (you don't have time follow everything that is going on).

I don't think a Go codebase belongs in systemd.

@Foxboron I need to play with this tool. I've just used the tool based on what particular distro has as "defacto" such as sbsign, pesign and even scripts/sign-file. I suppose the goal here is to provide "full coverage" over those?

Does this also substitute mokutil?

Fwiw, systemd implements a sbsign component with keyring caching of secrets.

However sbctl intends to be a key management utility + signing.

I have plans for MOK support.
