Thank you for reporting this bug and helping us look after Ubuntu.
We'll follow Debian on this, so I'll mark Won't Fix accordingly. We are
in sync with Debian right now, and I see no reason not to follow the
Debian maintainer's direction on this.
@maintainers:
- Please remove update-smart-drivedb.8.gz from the package. The man page does
not make any sense if the script is missing.
- Please consider providing drivedb.h as a separate package which is updated
more frequently. Same is discussed for FreeBSD, see FreeBSD Bugzilla 208398.
Both of these make sense to me, but I think that's an action to be taken
in Debian, not in Ubuntu (and Ubuntu will follow). The first point is a
bug in Ubuntu we could fix, but I don't think it's worth introducing an
Ubuntu delta over. If the Debian maintainer isn't already aware, then
please forward these requests there.
