You guys control this and can do what you think is best, but the reason I noted this as a 'bug' way back in 2016 is because I had a HD failure and only was made aware of it when i ran smartmontools from cli. I would think that an average user would install this package (smart-notifier) and expect t

It looks like the current behaviour is by design: you won't get any notification by default if you just install smartmontools unless you also install a working mail system where you will receive emails to root@ (eg. by following the Suggests metadata). smart-notifier is a separate package which you

Hi, I hit this very old bug while doing some clearance. Xenial reached EOSS (End of Standard Support) so I'm afraid it can't be fixed. It is unfortunate that we were unable to resolve this defect, however, there appears to be no further action possible at this time because it's not a security bug

It is also a regression, isn't it? It appears that mail is set up, but it is mailed to root and it is uncommon for a user to log in as root... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1646886 Tit

Hi, you are right that it is a bug, but if I understand the plumbing there correctly it is not that you get no notification at all. It is just that "this notifier" is not working/existent and should be removed or adapted. You for example still should get mails if mailing is set up to work throug
