[Bug 1943833] Re: fwupd failed to update metadata for lvfs

[Yuan-Chen Cheng]

As we are going to SRU fwupd 1.7.13 all the way back to focal, it seems
to be more natural and will give consistent behaviors if we also SUR
libjcat, and given the dependency of libjcat is quite simple.

I'll proceed in that way and we will see what the SRU team thinks then.

Bug description:
  When running `fwupdmgr refresh` from the command line or when
  performing an update from the Software application the following error
  will be thrown:

  Failed to update metadata for lvfs: checksum failure: failed to verify
  data, expected 98261db7124c8026fb88f77768787efc2f8355c3

  The cause is an outdated libjcat, as explained in the upstream bug
  report:
  https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/3652#issuecomment-912677175

  0.1.3 is included in Ubuntu but at least 0.1.4 of libjcat is required
  to function properly.

  Firmware can not be updated any longer as a result unless forcing the
  update manually by performing `fwupdmgr refresh --force`.

  This means the libjcat dependency of this package needs to be set to
  0.1.4 minimum and the libjcat package itself needs to be updated.
