As per currently agreed SRU policy exception for fwupd: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/firmware-updates focal launched with 1.3.x, so only the 1_3_X branch should be added into focal archive.
As mentioned there we track the stable branch in Ubuntu, so we shouldn't be backporting a plugin without associated other changes. This is very important as often daemon changes that are not obviously tied to the plugin may need to backport at the same time. So the options are either: 1) Get the synaptics fingerprint plugin backported into 1_3_X branch upstream and a new upstream 1.3.x release tagged. 2) Discuss with technical board to request to modify the exception to allow moving to the 1.4.x or 1.5.x release stream. In "general" I'm supportive of this direction, there are certainly other devices that are supported in upstream that it would be nice to support in LTS as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1900935 Title: Support to upgrade Synaptic fingerprint firmware from LVFS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/1900935/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
