<summary>Update device firmware on Linux</summary>
<description>
<p>
This project aims to make updating firmware on Linux automatic, safe and
reliable.
You can either use a GUI software manager like GNOME Software to view and
apply updates, the command-line tool or the D-Bus interface directly.
</p>
<p>
The fwupd process is a system daemon to allow session software to update
device firmware on your local machine.
It is designed for desktops, but this project is also usable on phones,
tablets and on headless servers.

to the issue tracker as required.

In this release we've moved the LVFS website to the fwupd project
and made them work really well together. To update all the firmware on
your system is now just a case of 'fwupdmgr refresh &&
fwupdmgr update'.
We've also added verification of BIOS and PCI ROM firmware, which
may be useful for forensics or to verify that system updates have been
applied.

<li>
Add a 'fwupdmgr update' command to update all devices to
latest versions

<li>Add a simple signing server that operates on .cab files</li>
<li>
Add a 'verify' command that verifies the cryptographic hash
of device firmware
</li>
<li>Allow clients to add new firmware metadata to the system cache</li>
<li>Move GetUpdates to the daemon</li>
<li>Move the LVFS website to the fwupd project</li>
