Hi there, libsmbios had some bugs filed against it that were needlessly RC and one that was clearly RC (#505589, FTBFS with gcc-4.4) but which was just fixed through an NMU of mine. The debdiff is attached. libsmbios is currently not in testing, but this NMU is on top of the version in stable. I think having an option to update Dell BIOSes in stable would be appreciated. The NMU is clearly pretty minimal. Kind regards, Philipp Kern
