management, which should invoke fwupdmgr to execute associated system
BIOS or other firmware update. Ubuntu20.04 default software management
is ‘ubuntu-software’, which do not support cab by default.It need to
install gnome-software by manually. CAB file need to support in Nautilus
and be enabled by default.
