Bug Description

[Impact]

Parallels virtual machine type is not a recognized VM type in Landscape and thus won't allow use of a Virtual Guest asset to register with.

[Reproducer]

 * Deploy a Parallels virtual machine
 * cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor
Parallels Software International Inc.

 * Install landscape-client
 * Register the client to the desired landscape-server
 * Product identifier: Parallels Virtual Platform (Undefined)

This bug was fixed in the package landscape-client - 23.02-0ubuntu1

---------------
landscape-client (23.02-0ubuntu1) lunar; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release 23.02:
    - Preventing the generation of large messages and logs that can overwhelm
      Landscape Server (LP: #1995775)
    - Improved MOTD slowdown on machines with many tap network interfaces
      (LP: #2006396)
    - No longer using deprecated apt-key when storing trusted GPG keys
      (LP: #1973202)
    - Fixed issue recognising Parallels VMs as Virtual Machine clients
      (LP: #1827909)
    - Fixes for incorrect logfile rotation config (LP: #1968189)
    - Client-side backoff handling to moderate traffic to Landscape Server
      during high load (LP: #1947399)
    - Avoid sending empty messages when catching up to expected next message
      (LP: #1917540)
    - --is-registered CLI option to quickly check if client is registered
      (LP: #1912516)
    - Can now report Ubuntu Pro attachment information if the version of
      Landscape Server it is registered to supports this (LP: #2006401)
    - Packages installed as dependencies as part of package profiles are now
      appropriately autoremovable (LP: #1878957)
    - Registration timeouts give an error instead of timing out (LP: #1889464)
    - RHEV hypervisor VMs are now recognized as virtual machines (LP: #1884116)
    - Doing a Landscape-driven release upgrade from a release running python 2
      to one running python 3 no longer hangs forever (LP: #1943291)
