Package: libatasmart4 Version: 0.19-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
New power modes were added in later versions of the ATA spec. Unfortunately libatasmart4 doesn't recognize these and as a result, it believes that certain drives are asleep when they are not. For example, a power mode of 0x81 is considered to be a submode of IDLE (0x80), but libatasmart considers this to be 'asleep'. smartmontools has added support for these new modes here: https://www.smartmontools.org/browser/trunk/smartmontools/ataprint.cpp#L2527 Ideally, sk_disk_check_sleep_mode() should be updated to handle these new power modes. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.9 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages libatasmart4 depends on: ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u8 ii libudev0 175-7.2 ii multiarch-support 2.13-38+deb7u8 libatasmart4 recommends no packages. libatasmart4 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
