Package: python-dmidecode
Version: 3.12.2-3
Getting the 'memory' section leads to strange python behaviour, e.g. the
subsequent command fails with:
'IndexError: list assignment index out of range'
This depends in the hardware and can't be reproduced everywhere.
Example:
$ python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Sep 26 2018, 18:42:22)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import dmidecode
>>> dmidecode.memory()
{'0x1000': {'dmi_type': 16, 'data': {'Maximum Capacity': '64 GB', 'Number
<snip>
'Manufacturer': '', 'Size': None, 'Form Factor': 'Unknown', 'Array
Handle': '0x1000'}, 'dmi_handle': '0x1103', 'dmi_size': 40}}
>>> print ""
IndexError: list assignment index out of range
Others have also seen this behaviour:

The not yet merged pull request[1] on github fixes the problem (at least
for me).
I am using Debian/stretch amd64.
