From b68fa6b2e13774dbde5d0b81f6bf0b0095536aa4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Goddard Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2022 16:47:18 +0100 Subject: Warn when smartctl not found Currently, if smartctl is not found by IPA, it will silently skip ATA secure erase and proceed to shred (if enabled). This is supposedly for backwards compatibility, but is quite hard to diagnose. This change adds a warning message to make it more obvious what is happening.
