** Description changed: [ Impact ] * Dell would like to disable thermald thermal management on Dell - OptiPlex XE4 on focal + OptiPlex XE4 for 20.04 * The reason is that the thermald on focal is too old to support the thermal policy configured in the BIOS , it leads the problem in lp:2064083. However, the platform can rely on EC to do the thermal management, so that it can omit the issue if thermald is inactive on the platform. [ Test Plan ] * Install the package on the target OptiPlex XE4 platform, product sku 0ACB * Run $ systemctl status thermald * The status should be inactive * Run $ systemctl status thermald on other platforms, the status should be as what it was. [ Where problems could occur ] * The change only takes place on the specified platform, the other platforms should work as what it was. If other platforms dmi reports the same pattern in sys_vendor and product_sku, the thermald will stop working too. [ Other Info ] * The thermald version after jammy can support the table configured in the BIOS correctly, so there is no need to apply the patch to the codename >= 22.04.
