Hey Sergio
Just spunup a test machine on VMWare with version 13.
I can confirm the issue is still present:
pjds@sombrero:~$ sudo cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid
[sudo] password for pjds:
EB7F3642-93FE-BACA-6161-311E52960EBE
pjds@sombrero:~$
pjds@sombrero:~$ sudo cat /sys/class/dmi/id/produc
I should add that the experiment was run on Bionic.
I did however run this on Eoan and wasn't able to replicate the issue.
Thanks again!

# apt policy dmidecode

Hey both,
Was this experiment run with VMWare version 11 and higher?
Also /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid and /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid
should not match up if the problem is being exhibited.
Cheers

Hi Pedro,
As Christian mentioned above, we tried to reproduce the issue on bionic
but were not able to.
Interestingly, when I was looking at the package we ship on bionic, I
noticed that the patch you mentioned on comment #6 is already included
on dmidecode 3.1. Actually, if you look at the upst
