Package: nwipe
Version: 0.38-1
Severity: serious
Hi,
nwipe is awesome, but there's a tiny but serious glitch,
it fails to start if hdparm is not installed:
---snip---
daniel@daniel-desktop:~$ sudo nwipe
[...]
[2025/01/24 10:26:28] warning: hdparm command not found.
[2025/01/24 10:26:28] warning: Required by nwipe for HPA/DCO detection &
correction and ATA secure erase.
[2025/01/24 10:26:28] warning: ** Please install hdparm **
daniel@daniel-desktop:~$ echo $?
1
daniel@daniel-desktop:~$
---snap---
Therefore nwipe needs to declare a dependency against hdparm.
Regards,
Daniel
