Description of problem:

RFE: bump smartmontools to 5.39+ to support MegaRAID and RocketRAID.

smartmontools-5.38 is too old, since 5.39 smartmontools can support MegaRAID and RocketRAID. Both the two are widely used in many system. Please help us to support them.

Although it might be good idea to bump smartmontools version, could you please submit your request via product support? Bugzilla is just bug tracking tool, not product support tool. This request via product support could increase chances to have smartmontools package updated - given the fact that RHEL-5 is quite late in release cycle and number of updated components is limited.

This request is already filed as private bug #519261 and two duplicates: bug #677259 and #654606. Despite original bug is private (and thus not visible for you), there is no reason to have opened another bug for the same feature requests.
