Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bookworm
X-Debbugs-Cc: gnome-software at packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:gnome-software
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

[ Reason ]
Due to changes in the secure boot summarized in https://wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot/CAChanges)
there needs to be an upgrade to a newer fwupd version in bookworm to allow updating the trust
chain.

This work is tracked by release team in the bookworm-pu bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1139252

Unfortunately; upgrading to the newer fwupd version requires an ABI bump which means some minor
patches for the ABI change and rebuilding against the newer libfwupd.

[ Impact ]
We wouldn't be able to do the update for fwupd in bookworm.

[ Tests ]
I've verified that updates for the test device are available in gnome-software.

[ Risks ]
Stability issues with gnome-software if there was a mistake in the implementation.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable

[ Changes ]
* Patches for fwupd 2.0 compat
* b-d on newer libfwupd-dev
