Well with the tests enabled, I believe that's an ACK from Seth. From my end, all that's missing is the bug subscriber. Mario, you asked me to sub ~foundations-bugs, but I'm not an admin for that team. I poked Steve Langasek on IRC, but he was away at the time. We'll see. -- You received this

Re: [Bug 1603072] Re: [MIR] libsmbios

Is it an all or nothing approach on moving binaries packages to main? If not, only care about the library package in main. It will take some work to adjust them to Python3 (wish this was raised sooner) but it can be done. On Mon, Dec 12, 2016, 06:05 Matthias Klose wrote: >

hmm, we are trying to move away from Python2. Can smbios be used with Python3 instead? I'd like to avoid new Python2 using packages in main given that we plan to demote it for the next LTS. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to

I reviewed libsmbios version 2.3.1-0ubuntu1 as checked into Yakkety. This should not be considered a full security audit but rather a quick check of maintainability. - libsmbios provides libraries and utilities for working with Dell BIOS - No CVEs in our database - The library is used by fwupd

[Bug 1603072] Re: [MIR] libsmbios

Seth, In Ubuntu it's going to be used for two purposes: fwupd, and fwupdate. Although the library features functionality that could be used for RBU firmware flashing, that feature is not going to be used in Ubuntu. The strategy for Dell client systems BIOS updates is to continue to use UEFI

[Bug 1603072] Re: [MIR] libsmbios

Mario, could you walk me through how this library is going to be used? - What processes use this library? - How are they started? - What user interaction do they have? How about their parents? - What controls are in place to avoid operating on untrusted inputs? I'm worried that the tool may not

Thanks for your patience Mario. My first question, is this actively supported and loved? There's 262 warnings in the build logs along the lines of: "class std::auto_ptr is deprecated" which gives me the strong impression that there's no longer upstream support for this library. Thanks **
