I'm sorry, but it seems that it at least was reintroduced somewhen. I have 1.3.4-1 installed on testing and it fails to start. Unfortunately is is not that verbose on the logs. $ service fwupd-refresh status ● fwupd-refresh.service - Refresh fwupd metadata and update motd Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/fwupd-refresh.service; static; vendor preset: disabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2019-12-02 09:16:34 CET; 2h 8min ago Docs: man:fwupdmgr(1) Process: 144751 ExecStart=/usr/bin/fwupdmgr refresh --no-metadata-check (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Main PID: 144751 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Dez 02 09:16:34 werner1 systemd[1]: Starting Refresh fwupd metadata and update motd...
