FWIW, I'm also experiencing the issue that efibootmgr -v produces the
error "Could not parse device path: Invalid argument" with libefiboot1
37-2.1, but not 37-2.  Building libefiboot1 with fdb8034 and 4e04afc
added to debian/patches does solve the issue for me.

Best,
Kevin

P.S. I had to build using GCC 9 due to
https://github.com/rhboot/efivar/issues/156
