We have people flipping between uefi <-> legacy boot too. because they can in firmware =) granted they need to extra steps to get that to work. I don't think it is heavy-handed, instead it is forward-looking =) and doing it at package level, catches "apt full-upgrade" installation too - as a few people don't use release-upgrader.
Another suggestion is to split the tool, efi, signed-efi into separate pacakges. Maybe even migrate to ubuntu-drivers infrastructure to pull in fwupdate on known machines. As far as I understand, my UEFI desktop will never receive fwupdate based updates, because board manufacturer doesn't provide things like that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1571679 Title: fwupdate-signed doesn't get installed on upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1571679/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
