[11:28] <bankin> is there any good reason why apt on my 20.04 arm64 (RPi4) keeps the 'fwupd' and 'fwupd-signed' packages from upgrading? (when doing apt upgrade) 
[11:28] <bankin> the newest candidate is 1.5.11-0ubuntu1~20.04.2, and my currently installed one is 1.3.11-1~focal1
[11:29] <bankin> seems like 15 new packages or so will install, if i insist on a manual upgrade
[11:41] <ogra> seems pointless to have fwupd on Pi, but perhaps waveform_ plans to use it in the images in the future somehow ... 
[11:49] <waveform_> bankin, ogra, fwupd is *largely* unused on the pi but might have some role depending on what's plugged in (e.g. there's stuff in there for wacom tablets IIRC, and presumably a few other USB things). It certainly doesn't deal with the only firmware built into the pi though (the boot firmware); that's dealt with by the rpi-eeprom package
[11:50] <bankin> great! thanks for clarifying
