Public bug reported:
This package is broken. The smartmon tools use commands which are no
longer in 16.04.
Example:
/etc/smartmontools/run.d/10powersave-notify
#! /bin/sh
# Send message if /usr/lib/powersave/powersave-notify exists or exit silently
[ -x /usr/lib/powersave/powersave-notify ] || exit 0
/usr/lib/powersave/powersave-notify "<b>Your hard disk drive is failing!</b>
S.M.A.R.T. message:
$SMARTD_MESSAGE"
/usr/lib/powersave does not exisat nor does powersave-notify exist
anywhere in 16.04 even after powersave-notify is installed. I tried to
edit the script to run /usr/bin/smart-notifier whichj does exist, but
the script fails with
/usr/share/smart-notifier/smart_notifier/gui.py:23: PyGIWarning: Gtk was
imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk',
'3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
from gi.repository import Gtk
I think this is a bit scary. The user will get no warnings that his disk
is failing due to this error.
