Package: smartmontools Version: 5.37-6 Severity: normal Hello,
The new smartmontools package in 'unstable' fails to install because smartctl started returning an error on one disk, which worked fine before the update as far as I know. The disk is attached to a SATA controller (SiI 3112): /dev/sda: Seagate ST3250823AS (smartctl works) /dev/sdb: Western Digital WDC5000-AAKS (smartctl fails) I tried to run smartctl manually on the disk: smartctl version 5.37 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Device Model: WDC WD5000AAKS-00TMA0 Serial Number: WD-WMAPW1476504 Firmware Version: 12.01C01 User Capacity: 500,107,862,016 bytes Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall] ATA Version is: 7 ATA Standard is: Exact ATA specification draft version not indicated Local Time is: Sun Nov 4 01:24:42 2007 EET SMART support is: Available - device has SMART capability.
