This version is identical to previous prerelease except version
This version is only build by distros.

Package name: hardinfo2
must obsolete/break+replace/update hardinfo+alias hardinfo2 (In order to upgrade hardinfo on older distros that had hardinfo - we can go back to FC23/DEB7/EPEL6/U14.04 ~10years - please backport this app, thanx)

How hardinfo2 is released:

• First at least one prerelease with testbuilds using CPack
• Version number stepped
• Release for Package Maintainers - this version is only available in distros.
• Version number stepped (master unstable)
  NOTE: The build-in CPack is probably only used by GitHub developers/users.

Distro releases are always build with -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
