[PATCH] rteval: Catch failures in python-dmidecode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



python-dmidecode can generate incorrect xml,
namely Attribute unit redefined

Although useful, the dmidecode is not critical to rteval reporting.

Therefore catch this, and first see if we can at least query the bios.
If that works report the bios instead off all, and if that
doesn't work, just continue without the dmidecode report.
