Package: fwupd
Version: 1.9.3-1
Followup-For: Bug #945203
Dear Maintainer,
A warning displayed each time I login the system (Lenovo IdeaPad 340) says
there is an update available. After ignoring it for a few weeks, I tried
updating the firmware, specifically the UEFI dbx device (217 --> 371), using
"fwupdmgr update". I received the same message:
"failed to write data to efivars: Error writing to file descriptor: No
space left on device"
After looking it up (Internet search, DBTS), I found this bug stating that
nothing can be done. I understand that there is nothing else to do if there is
not more room. Regarding the other suggested possibility (about the BIOS
locking it down), is there any option to convince the BIOS to be more "open"?
Anyway, another question is about a way to remove or to avoid the warning when
login (when the update is not possible as is our case).
The last question is to calm down my curiosity because of my poor understanding
of the life of a (software) bug. This is one of my first bug reports, and I
still don't get the criteria to change the bug status. Why the bug is open yet?
I mean, it has been dealt with. What else can be done? It is my understanding
that the information will still be available even if the bug is closed.
Thank you in advance for your time. Regards, robert
