assigning to Lars as fwupd maintainer.
Comment 2 m1027 2021-06-15 08:02:18 UTC
Here is the Link [1] why fwupd-efi is required for >=fwupd-1.6.0.

Also note that the fwupd package has to receive a little tweak in meson: "In
the fwupd package, the subproject behavior should be explicitly disabled using
-Defi_binary=false."

See also the recommendation [2].

Thanks
