This issue is in Dell's side of the tennis court according to Redhat...
https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3409271
Until Dell EMC updates OMSA to remove the dependency on the deprecated c++
interface in libsmbios, customers will need to work around the issue by
configuring yum to ignore/exclude the new version of libsmbios shipped by Red
Hat.

Hello all -
Is there a document that lists how the fw updates are verified before applied?
I see that Catalog.xml has md5hash but couldn't find a document that says it is
verified. Also does DSU or DRM check digital signatures or does Dell leave it
for end-users to do it onm their own by publishing
sha1/sha-256/md5 signatures?
Lastly, is the Catalog.xml published by Dell is protected in some ways that is
tamper proof?
Just curious as my security team is asking for some level of documentation.
Any links to PDF files is appreciated.
Best regards
P
