GNOME Software and fwupd



I've just merged a patch to gnome-software which adds an optional (but
default enabled) dependency on fwupd[1]. The fwupd project just
provides a DBus interface for applying low-level firmware to various
types of devices.

I don't know if this makes sense for the continuous integration
server. I don't know if it makes sense to enable by default.
Installing firmware on more devices would be awesome (and make them
more secure) but it is Yet Another Dep.

Comments welcome,

Richard
