Hi folks,

We'd like to push an update into the last stretch point release for
fwupd. The last version in stretch (0.7.4-2) is now considered so old
that it's (a) not really functional any more, and (b) no longer
supported by upstream. There are also security worries
(CVE-2020-10759) with this version. We've discussed this with the
security team (in CC) and they're keen to see this addressed, but
maybe via the PU process before it hits LTS.

To fix all this, we'd like to switch to a supported stable release
branch as supported by upstream (0.8.x); Mario, the primary maintainer
in Debian, is also part of the upstream development team and has been
working to maintain that. Apparently Ubuntu and other distros have
switched to this already.

This *does* mean that the debdiff is *way* too large to fit in mail,
sorry. :-( I've put a copy up at

 https://www.einval.com/~steve/debian/fwupd_0.8.3-1_amd64.debdiff.gz

for reference.

Sorry this is so big and so late... :-(
