Code review comment for lp:~adeuring/launchpad/bug-438024-parse-dmi-data

This branch adds a method SubmissionParser._parseDmi().

The HWDB client in Karmic will no longer submit data containing HAL data; instead it will send data from udev, some DMI data and devices properties stored in sysfs files.

SubmissionParser._parseDmi() converts the text data from the <dmi> node as provided by the HWDB client into a simple dicitionary.

test:

./bin/test -t test_hwdb_submission_parser
