[Bug 1841744] Re: Drop fwupdate from the archive from E

[Steve Langasek]

fwupdate has been re-added to eoan because it has reverse-dependencies.

This is a package that's still in Debian unstable.  "No longer needed"
is not normally a valid rationale for removing a package from Ubuntu
devel that is still included in Debian.  In cases where it is important
to remove the package despite still being in Debian, then it also needs
to be added to the sync blacklist.

** Changed in: fwupdate (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Released => Incomplete

Title:
  Drop fwupdate from the archive from E

Status in fwupdate package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

  We can now move forward and remove fwupdate from the archive.  The new
  tool fwupd replaces fwupdate, and fwupdate is now seen as legacy.

  This won't have any effect on the ability to update firmware etc, the
  tooling all uses fwupdmgr.

  I would like to get Mario's +1 on this bug report before we proceed
  and to make sure that my assertions are correct.
