[Bug 1841744] Re: Drop fwupdate from the archive from E

[Mario Limonciello]

For ubuntu-unity-meta I asked the maintainer in #1842014 to update it
but they didn't yet.  Considering the urgency here, I took matters into
my hands:

1) Ported https://code.launchpad.net/~unity7maintainers/ubuntu-seeds
/ubuntu-unity.cosmic -> https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev
/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu-unity

2) Updated ubuntu-unity-meta to reference eoan.  Due to how germinate
works, it falls back to https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev
/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu-unity when
https://code.launchpad.net/~unity7maintainers/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu-
unity.oean doesn't exist.

3) Refreshed dependencies using ./update

4) Uploaded to eoan

So I believe that Ubuntu plans can continue now.

That said there is discussion in Debian now to turn fwupdate into a transitional package with something like this (advice welcome).
