Fri 29 Apr 2016 03:49:05 PM UTC, comment #2: It should default to off, this breaks tooling like SaltStack, Factor, and other configuration management and inventory tools. No need to punish admins who are already punished by the likely crappy hardware or change the rest of the software world because of a warning that most people can't do anything about.

Fri 29 Apr 2016 12:26:51 PM UTC, comment #1: I don't much like moving messages from stdout to stderr, because in the context of support, you often ask people to send you the output of dmidecode. Everything going to stderr will typically be missing from the file you receive.

This fixup warning interferes with tools that read stdout. Push the warning to stderr where it belongs. |
