Please sync libsmbios 2.0.3.dfsg-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main).

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
We were jumping ahead of Debian previously since they didn't yet package
2.0.3.  They've actually swooped up our delta now so we can switch back
to their package.

Changelog since current jaunty version 2.0.3-0ubuntu1:

libsmbios (2.0.3.dfsg-1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Jose Luis Tallon ]
  * New upstream version (Closes: #494316)
    - merged enhancements from Ubuntu (thanks, guys)

  * debian/control:
    - Drop build depend on libxml2, xml packages since they are no longer
    supported upstream
    - Build libsmbios2 packages (soname bump)
    - Add dpatch to build-depends
    - Enable building on lpia (Closes: #488278)

  * debian/rules:
    - Add dpatch support
    - Don't clean up ltmain.sh, config.sub, or config.guess
      as they are shipped in the upstream tarball (Closes: #491795)

  * Additions:
    - removed (lib)smbiosxml.pc; it isn't needed anymore

  [ Loic Minier ]
  * Add empty dpatch 00list.
  * Add myself as Uploader.
  * Wrap build-deps and deps.
  * Drop useless debian/*.dirs.
  * Cleanup rules; drop useless vars, commented out sample constructs etc.
  * Pass -s to dh_* in binary-arch; call dh_testroot, and dh_install*,
    _compress, _fixperms, _installdeb, _gencontrol, _md5sums, _builddeb in
    binary-indep (with -i).
  * Drop useless dh_installdirs, dh_installexamples and dh_link calls.
  * Actually pass CFLAGS to ./configure; set LDFLAGS in the same way.
  * Prepend -z defs to LDFLAGS for safety with --as-needed.
  * Move configure flags to their own var, configure_flags.
  * Only pass --host to configure if DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE and DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE
    differ.
  * Honor distclean exit status.
  * Drop configure from .PHONY, no such target.
  * Add patch and unpatch to .PHONY as dpatch.make doesn't do so.
  * Drop debian/README.Debian which only has a description of the packages and
    still listed libsmbiosxml.
  * Cleanup watch file.
  * Drop maintainer scripts which were mostly unused except for a manual
    ldconfig call which is handled by debhelper anyway.
  * Drop --disable-rpath configure flag; doesn't seem to be supported.
  * Drop duplicate dh_installman call and move man page symlinks to
    binary-arch.
  * Refactor man page symlinks shell snippet.
  * Drop useless debian/libsmbios-bin.docs.
  * Cleanup debian/Makefile.
  * Fix watch file.
  * Cleanup debian/*.install files.
  * Add ${shlibs:Depends} and ${misc:Depends} to libsmbios-dev.
  * Don't fixup the perms or include/smbios; these should be fixed on the
    package's dirs and dh_fixperms will fix them anyway.
  * Let config.status depend on $(DPATCH_STAMPFN) instead of build depending
    on patch-stamp.
  * Bump up debhelper compat level to 5; build-dep on >= 5.
  * Disable manpage and symlinks for now; closes: #394898.
  * Build-dep on chpath and chrpath -d binaries in usr/sbin after install to
    drop the RPATHes on the binaries (usually caused by a broken upstream
    libtool).
  * Do update build/config.guess and build/config.sub; this is safe and
    actually recommended; see autotools-dev README.Debian for rationale;
    ideally, we'd also save and restore upstream's files to keep a minimum
    Debian .diff, but this isn't too nice with the dpatch include.
  * Drop now useless libtool bdep.
  * Mention full download address in copyright.
  * Redo copyright and stop installing COPYING-OSL; do some copyright holders
    research aside of the upstream's COPYING information.
  * Don't ship README which only has licensing and build/install information.
  * Stop shipping obsolete TODO.
  * Jump on the SONAME package renaming train to stop shipping *.la files.
  * Fix snippet to avoid shipping boost_LICENSE_1_0_txt in libsmbios-dev.
  * Run testsuite after build unless nocheck is set in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
  * Remove build-stamp in clean.
  * Strip binary blobs from the tarball (hence use a .dfsg version suffix) as
    the upstream tarball includes binary blobs in cppunit/platform/ which are
    memory dumps including a proprietary BIOS; document this in copyright;
    NB: upstream was contacted and will reply ASAP.  Comment out testsuite as
    a result.  Update watch file to mangle version number appropriately.
