Firmware updates fail with confusing warning when low battery and on AC
Trying to install the XPS 13 9370 System Update through gnome-software fails with a warning Unable to update "XPS 13 9370 System Update": AC Power is required
even though the device is on AC power.
Running fwupdmgr update
from console yields the following more helpful error message: failed to update_prepare using upower: Cannot install update when battery is not at least 30% unless forced
.
This happens on fedora 30 with gnome-software.x86_64 version 3.32.3-1.fc30
