[Test Case] sudo dmidecode [Fix] Upstream has the following fix: commit e12ec26e19e02281d3e7258c3aabb88a5cf5ec1d Author: Jean Delvare <jdelv...@suse.de> Date: Mon Aug 26 14:20:15 2019 +0200 dmidecode: Only scan /dev/mem for entry point on x86 [Regression Risk] In Ubuntu, dmidecode only builds on amd64, arm64, armhf & i386.
