Description Rüdiger 2015-11-04 16:27:09 UTC 
fwupd (http://www.fwupd.org/) is a Firmware updater for Linux. It provides a D-Bus API to allow session software to update firmware: http://www.fwupd.org/developers.html

It would be great if muon could support fwupd as backend.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Aleix Pol 2015-11-04 16:34:19 UTC 
Sure, patches welcome. :)
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2018-01-26 19:33:09 UTC 
For any who are reading along, patches are indeed welcome, but I want to clarify that we aren't blocking this on a user-contributed patch or anything. We have this on our own radar screens too. I suspect that Aleix's comment was more directed at Rüdiger, since he's skilled in a C++!
Comment 3 Abhijeet Sharma 2018-08-08 11:05:43 UTC 
The Fwupd is now supported in KDE Discover Software center. The Fwupd-Backend has been implemented and merged as a part of GSOC Project (https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/dashboard/project/5140246090481664/overview/) from this commit(a30850900bbf9487f08bd43d988267e2ec034fd0).So I am Marking this bug as closed now.
