Fwupd - issue with update

Can someone help me resolve the following?


I’m on a Librem 14 with PureBoot & Librem Key. I had to reinstall PureOS a couple of weeks ago.
If I try to download it I get:

I’m relatively new to Linux. This feels like my check engine light is on and I want to fix it.
Trying to update and upgrade in Terminal gives me:
The following packages have been kept back:
fwupd
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.

Try to upgrade with this command:

sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade

So, I upgraded with that command. Now in Software I get:

I cannot say that understand what is going on there, as I don’t have Librem 14, but you can try following command (if sudo reboot not helping):
sudo fwupdmgr refresh

If above not helping you should try this one:
sudo fwupdmgr --force refresh
