Bug#1062820: fwupd: Fails to start if libfwupd version isn't an exact match
Package: fwupd
Version: 1.9.10-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 3.5
Dear Maintainer,
While trying to dodge Bug #1061731, apt-listbugs pinned my version of
fwupd to 1.9.10-1 but libfwupd was still upgraded, resulting in the
following failure to start the daemon:
Failed to load daemon: failed to load engine: libfwupd version 1.9.12 does not match daemon 1.9.10
I can see that the source code of fwupd requires an exact match between
the two [1], so probably the Depends relation should be changed to
strict match.
Thanks,
Facundo
