Details

When I run lshw on my netbook, it segfaults with an error when run:

$ sudo lshw
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error'
what(): basic_string::_M_create
Aborted

but it runs fine on my desktop.

more over lshw -version returns an empty string (I have B.02.19.2 installed).

Upstream does not provide (from what I see) a simple way to report bug

Look at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=267430 which explains the bug about the version
This task depends upon

I can't tell if it's fixed. I sold that netbook.
