Hello Yuan-Chen, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libxmlb into bionic-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxmlb/0.1.8-1~ubuntu18.04.1 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See

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 and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. 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)

Bug description:
  * Impact

  Bios vendor is pushing to put the new design into cab file, and also
  new docking DW19 needs the new fwupd to support it.

  That needs new fwupd to support.

  * Test case

  I
  1. install the new fwupd, and plugin the new docking - DW19.
  2. fwupdmgr get-devices and check if all internal device can properly show
  II.
  1. If you can get new cab file, try to use fwupdmgr install XX.cab to see if can work properly.
  III.
  1. If you can get a machine that have some firmware update pending, try to go gnome-software, and click refresh with the new fwupd, you should be able to see the pending firmware showed there. Which proves that it can properly be integrated with gnome. (ycheng-twn have a laptop with that condition, and he can verify that one)
  IV. As we need to remove fwupdate-signed and install fwupd-sign, we need to test if fwupdate(bionic) work well with fwupd-signed(the new verion in this SRU)

  * Regression potential

  
  Since the upstream maintainer is back up this upgrade, and he also works in a major computer vendor and works closely with the BIOS team, it should be fairly low risk.
