@hughsie tbh, I don't think the problem is on LVFS side:

@hughsie I checked the downloaded file in HEX viewer, the full size is 150137 and looks correct, since the end of the CAB file contains firmware.jcat, so I don't think the problem is in LVFS. See https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/8260#issuecomment-2575121731
Not a developer or anything but I'm still getting this on my computer.
Running Fedora Linux 41 Workstation and Gnome if that helps.
@swarming1905 OOC do you still on the same fwupd version?
It would be great if you provide the fwupd version information for the working variant, thanks.
Hi. Happy to do so if you tell me how.
in the Firmware app, it lists my firmware version as 1.11.4 which is the version that the Software Store app previously listed as an available update but which all of us were getting this hash error for
@swarming1905 Please provide the version of the daemon and client:
fwupdtool get-report-metadata
or
fwupdtool --version
Hmmm.... I did the update and it works for me. Used the fwupd from the distro:
$ sudo fwupdtool --version
compile info.libusb 1.0.27
compile org.freedesktop.fwupd 2.0.4
compile org.freedesktop.Passim 0.1.8

runtime com.hughsie.libjcat 0.2.2

runtime org.freedesktop.fwupd 2.0.4
Looks like fwupdmgr upgrade fails with the error, while fwupdtool upgrade succeeds.

@Flat good catch, thank you!
@hughsie indeed -- different behavior for downloading via fwupdtool and fwupdmgr, tested with the current main as well.
Can you try with 2.0.5 (or git main branch) please? There was an input stream issue it might have been.
Unfortunately issue still persists.
