hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See

enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update

Bug description:
[Impact]
* Platforms that don't have SMBIOS 3.0 tables won't be affected
* Platforms with SMBIOS 3.0 tables can use libsmbios tools for performing commands and manipulating BIOS objects.
[Test Case]
* On a platform with an SMBIOS 3 table, try to list all tokens using
smbios-token-ctl:
# smbios-token-ctl -d
[Regression Potential]
* Regression potential is low. this change was made upstream already
and is a very small change.
