Description
This is more of a reminder for me that I'm supposed to add this before the end of the 12.4 cycle. The current plan is to do it after the updates to Plasma and KF6 go in.

Status update on this:
We are already going to be making some underlying changes for systemd-258, on both SysV and systemd. At the same time, I will also want to update GNOME - and one of the components that we need to add is a GNOME package.
I'm supposed to be giving a presentation next month on firmware security. The device in question that I'm supposed to be using is only updatable via fwupd (it's a Logitech keyboard/mouse combo).
I'm going to talk this over with Bruce, but I'd like to start working on this alongside the October 1st LFS update, where I plan to do the update to systemd (and also much work on gnome-49).

We've decided to go with an alternate approach to adding it due to the dependencies.
After discussion with Bruce, I'm postponing this to 12.5.
