Package: smartmontools Version: 5.41+svn3365-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Smartd keeps writing the same (old) values to the attrlog.*.csv file on my system. All entries in the csv files on my system (8 months worth for my previous harddisk, and 2.5 months for my current harddisk) are identical, except for the timestamp. I downloaded the newer version of smartmontools (5.42). After building with the following commands: ./configure \ --enable-savestates \ --enable-attributelog \ --with-savestates=/tmp/smart/smartd. \ --with-attributelog=/tmp/smart/attrlog. make And copying the latest log files from /var/lib/smartmontools, I ran smartd, and it appends the *current* SMART values to the csv file. For comparison, I also downloaded the debian package, unpacked the .orig tarball, and compiled that with the same commands as above. The resulting binary also appends the *current* SMART values to the .csv file... As a final test, (after modifying the log directory in debian/rules), I built the package using dpkg-buildpackage -b, and I tested the resulting smartd executable. Just like the installed package. It appended stale SMART data to the csv file. Kind regards, Rogier Please note that /usr/share/bug/smartmontools failed when I was creating this bugreport: Please select tags: (one at a time) [none] Gathering additional data, this may take a while...
