So fwupdmgr takes care of this on the command line?

I think GNOME Software uses some fwupd library rather than the straight-up command-line fwupdmgr, but yeah, basically.

At least the Debian package depends on both, the library libfwupd2 and fwupd. So fwupdmgr should be present too (depending on how the used distribution handles these dependencies).
