Title:
  unsupported fwupd version on 22.04 makes firmware updating impossible

Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am a victim (and apparently far from being alone) of this upstream
  situation: https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues/518

  However, according to that bug report:


  > >    runtime org.freedesktop.fwupd 1.7.9
  > 
  > This is now end of life I'm afraid: https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/blob/main/SECURITY.md#supported-versions

  > You should nag Ubuntu to upgrade the package to something that gets updates. Sorry that's not more helpful.

  So... here am I, "nagging Ubuntu to upgrade the package". Since Ubuntu
  22.04 is still under Long Term Support, I expect I should be able to
  keep using the system to do the necessary firmware updates.
