Broadcom 58200 fingerprint sensor Linux support (Precision 3541)
Does Dell intend to support the fingerprint sensor on the Precision 3541 (Broadcom Corp. 58200, USB ID 0a5c:5842) for Linux users? I dove into the Dell Ubuntu repositories, but can only find some work on the unrelated Goodix fingerprint sensors.

Highlighting @DanielNTX because you posted a competent reply on a related question, not sure if you're a Dell rep

Did you make your Broadcom fingerprint work on Ubuntu 22.04?

fedora users can use my repo:
https://lfarkas.org/linux/packages/fedora/lfarkas.repo
```
rpm -e --nodeps libfprint
dnf install libfprint-tod libfprint-tod-broadcom
```
and reboot (sometimes the first reboot not working and needs 2 reboot:-)
our packages directly from:

@lfarkas
I just tried this with a Dell Latitude 5431 and it worked!
OS: Fedora Linux 41 (Workstation Edition) x86_64
Host: Latitude 5431
Kernel: Linux 6.12.10-200.fc41.x86_64
Thank you.
