Package: dmidecode Version: 2.12-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
running dmidecode on the extracted smbios file from a thinkpad T450s causes a crash. The way we extracted the smbios works with other laptops. While the file may be corrupt, dmidecode should not crash in any case. Backtrace is below (on an amd64 jessie system). I can probably send the file to you if necessary, but I don't want to put it into the public bts.
