Package: fwupd
Version: 2.0.17-6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I saw a message that 2 updates where available for my asus board. Both
related to microsoft secure boot keys. As the message was shown to my
regular user - I thought: "Ok, lets give it a try. This won't happen
anyway". And to my surprise it worked. I am not sure if a user should be
able to trigger firmware updates. I can imagine secenarios where,
administrators want to test updates throughly before rolling out the
update everywhere. If users can trigger updates at will it might enrage
those guys, as it could cause some trouble.

Feel free to downgrade.

Thanks

Jan
