Comment 8 for bug 1662345

Hello,
I have revived this bug and assigned myself to it.

It turns out that -smbios type=1,manufacturer=Scaleway is required by us to trigger cloud-init's DataSourceScaleway on our infrastructure.

And, moreover, the functionality works as designed on Bionic :

# dmidecode | head
# dmidecode 3.1
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 3.0.0 present.
Table at 0xBC030000.

Handle 0x0100, DMI type 1, 27 bytes
System Information
        Manufacturer: Scaleway
        Product Name: KVM Virtual Machine
        Version: 1.0
# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic
# arch
aarch64

So I am going to work on trying to identify what was added to version 1:2.11+dfsg-1ubuntu7.4 to make it work as expected.
