Bug Description
Please backport libsmbios 2.4.0-1 (main) from bionic to trusty, xenial.
Reason for the backport:
=======
Many platforms have adopted SMBIOS 3.0 tables and can't work properly with the functionality
in current version of libsmbios.
libsmbios also has some memory leaks that are exercised in error scenarios as a result.
Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.
You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:
Test builds available at ppa:superm1/
* trusty:
[-] Package builds without modification
Package needs minor modification in packaging to use debhelper 9 instead of 10.
No other changes needed.
