An update that contains one feature and has one fix can now be installed.
Description:
This update for smartmontools fixes the following issues:

Restart smartd and generate smartd_opts only if there are real sysconfig changes; do not trigger generate_smartd_opts by YaST, systemd is enough. (bsc#1195785)
-
Update smartmontools to the latest version from the upstream branch. (jsc#SLE-21751)
-
Fix update needed logic.
