+- Added check to remove redundant (or non-functional if Secure Boot is
+  active) kernel entries for Ubuntu, which is now including two versions of
+  kernels, one signed and the other unsigned.

   if the dmraid utility was not installed.

 - Fixed mistaken identification of the MOK utility as the "MOK utility
   utility."
 
-- Added detection of German-language FAT (non-)boot sector created by
-  iPartition to keep it out of the Mac boot menu.
