Can't upgrade Logitech unify Firmware using fwupd

I tested all (probably most) of the solutions that are online. And the solution that worked (I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 Live) is the following:

  1. Remove the apt version of fwupd with

     sudo apt remove fwupd
    

    Because the current repository version of Ubuntu 18.04 seems to be

client version: 1.0.9
checkout info: 1.0.9

This is a problem, because this version yields the following error:

cannot handle firmware requirement not-child

  1. Replace it with the snap version of fwupd which also (maybe) installs snap, too.

     sudo snap install fwupd --classic
    

    The current snap version on the other hand provides a newer version which works without this complication. Its version is (as of July 2019)

client version: 1.2.10
checkout info: 1.2.10

As of June 2020, the following is valid

client version: 1.4.3
daemon version: 1.4.3

  1. With this current version, execute

     fwupdmgr refresh
    
  2. And finally, execute the update

     fwupdmgr update
    
  3. Now test the version with

     fwupdmgr get-devices | grep -A30 "Unifying Receiver" | grep -i "version:"
    

    Its output should be (as of 03.10.2020):

    Current version: RQR12.10_B0032
