Bug Description

Ubuntu release
==============

Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS
Release: 16.04

What was expected
=================

Updating to a new BIOS version via LVFS works.

What happens instead
====================

According to the Dell Support website, the XPS 9360 has a new BIOS update (version 1.3.2) since January 26th. This is my first time trying to update BIOS via LVFS, so I may have done something incorrectly, but the update doesn't seem to be in LVFS yet.

I base that on not seeing it, even after a refresh, in the Updates tab of Ubuntu Software (a rebranding of Gnome Software) as instructed on http://fwupd.org.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/users.html.

I also don't see it with the following commands (from https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd#basic-usage-flow-command-line):

$ sudo fwupdmgr get-devices
