Comment 34 for bug 1574079

Jay,

Surely you mean 16.04 not 10.04. In Kubuntu even if fwupd is installed it
won't start up on its own.

In Ubuntu it starts up with your session by gnome-software looking for
firmware updates from fwupd.

If you could reproduce by manually running fwupd and attaching a debugger
you may still be able to help assist even if it doesn't happen by default
in Kubuntu since fwupd doesn't automatically spawn.
