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

fwupdate 12-6 was uploaded into Debian to do a transition there->fwupd.
After bullseye release will propose it to remove from Debian archive.

It's up to Ubuntu archive admins to either accept the same transition
package (I tested it on Ubuntu w/ a local apt repo and it worked just
fine for me) or to remove fwupdate from archive entirely without
transition package.

Title:
  Drop fwupdate from the archive from E

Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Confirmed
Status in fwupdate package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in lubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-unity-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Further to this bug report:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupdate/+bug/1787254

  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.
