I guess this is is specifically because the firmware-updater snap is confined and can't access /usr
.
I think a reasonable way to "solve" this issue is to not provide updates for "local" remotes for the system. In the case of the Integrated Webcam
test device it would be able to be updated from LVFS as well and avoid this issue.
In fwupd 1.9.14 in noble there is a new feature to very easily enable a test device for testing firmware upgrade flows without real hardware.
Install like this:
After that a fake "Integrated Webcam" will show up that can be updated natively.
