The specified version cannot be installed as it requires itself

# dmidecode -s system-product-name 
OptiPlex 7460 AIO

# dmidecode -s bios-version
1.25.0

# fwupdmgr install 701f3625cf01e3396b1e17c4830933adeaab27a0341fc8b747a68daeaa5fec62-firmware_OptiPlex_7760_7460_AIO_1.26.0.cab 
Decompressing…           [***************************************]
Not compatible with firmware version 1.25.0, requires >= 1.26.0

The errors seems to be in firmware.metainfo.xml:

[...]
<requires>
  <firmware compare="ge" version="1.26.0"/>
</requires>
[...]

expected:

[...]
<requires>
  <firmware compare="ge" version="1.10.0"/>
</requires>
[...]

Note: Dell requires Version 1.10.0 for older versions - click on Important Information:

If the current BIOS version is earlier than 1.6.4, ensure that you update the BIOS to version 1.10.0 before updating the BIOS to version 1.25.0.

Unfortunately we found further similar errors in firmware.metainfo.xml for OptiPlex 7470 systems:

• OptiPlex 7470 - Version 1.22.0 requires 1.22.0, expected: 1.5.0
• OptiPlex 7470 - Version 1.23.2 requires nothing, expected: 1.5.0

Note: Dell requires Version 1.5.0 for older versions:

If the current BIOS version is earlier than 1.0.2, ensure that you update the BIOS to version 1.5.0 before updating the BIOS to version 1.23.1.

Thank you for this useful program! 🙏
