The fix is now in the main archive so it now works for everybody without
any change in dmidecode. Could you add hurd-i386 in the archs?

Less easily.

I've fixed my Hurd installation into having a proper /dev/mem and now
dmidecode does work.

No need for a patch, it's a Hurd bug that /dev/mem didn't work yet.

People can debug it independent of the list of architectures listed in
the Architecture: header.  The list of architectures is a statement
from me as the maintainer on which architectures I belive is working,
and I will only add archs that are reported to work.  I do not want
bug reports claiming dmidecode do not work on hurd, before anyone have
actually ported it to hurd. :)

So, if you want hurd added to the Architecture: header, submit a
tested patch making it work on hurd. :) Preferably it should be sent
upstream as well.

No idea.  Perhaps the upstream author know? :)

Happy hacking,

Not yet, but having it compiled will let people try and debug it.

Why would it?  To my knowledge it just reads /dev/mem, which the Hurd
has, but seemingly lacks some support for it.

Does it work too?  I thought it was quite tied to the linux kernel.
