SMARTMONTOOLS contains utilities that control and monitor storage devices using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) system build into ATA and SCSI Hard Drives. This is used to check the reliability of the hard drive and to predict drive failures. SMARTMONTOOLS Version 5.x is designed to comply to the ATA/ATAPI-5 specification (Revision 1). Future releases of SMARTMONTOOLS (Versions 6.x and 7.x) will comply with the ATA/ATAPI-6 and ATA/ATAPI-7 specifications. This package is meant to be an up-to-date replacement for the ucsc-smartsuite and smartsuite packages, and is derived from that code.
created an ebuild for smartmontools, can be found here: http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/sys-apps/smartmontools/smartmontools-5.0.45.ebuild?rev=1.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup thanks for your submissions
Please pay attention to the following line I posted: dodoc CHANGELOG TODO COPYING README smartd.conf It makes sense in my opinion to ship the package with an example file as the smartmontools author wanted.
added a new ebuild, this one installs the example .conf file and the man page for said .conf file http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/sys-apps/smartmontools/smartmontools-5.0.45.ebuild.diff?r1=1.1&r2=1.2
Good job. Well done!
