[Bug 1980334] Re: Support Quectel's modem(EM120/160) firmware update, fwupd

[Łukasz Zemczak]

Hello Jason, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libxmlb into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxmlb/0.3.6-2build1~20.04.1 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: libxmlb (Ubuntu Focal)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-focal

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * EM120/160 firmware update's fw can't get updated.

  [Test Plan]

   * Use a machine with EM120/160 and test fw upgrade or reinstall.

  For the rest of the SRU document, please check lp:1982103

  Note: the SRU of fwupd is following the exception in
   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/firmware-updates. We also need to
   upgrade libxmlb due to fwupd is its only major consumer,
   and without that, we could not have the correct fwupd function
   on this one.

  The current fwupd packages in focal have to be rebuild with the latest 1.18.6 modem manager[1] in updates channel.

  In the modem-manager plugin of fwupd, there are several version check
  macros to determine the version of modem-manager, for instance:

  https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/tree/plugins/modem-
  manager/fu-mm-device.c?h=ubuntu/focal-updates#n22

      #if MM_CHECK_VERSION(1, 17, 2)
      #include "fu-firehose-updater.h"
      #endif

  If the version is equal to or newer than 1.17.2, fwupd will have
  different behaviors. And the previous version in Focal is 1.16.6 so we
  have to rebuild or do a version bump to make sure it compile with the
  new modem manager.
