Well, just to make sure: remove all smart* and smart-beta* packages
and reinstall smart-0.49.1 (your config, channels, etc... will be kept
unless you rm -rf /var/lib/smart/*)
Worked fine for me and a few other people who tested it so... YMMV and
s..t happens ;)
Also, from the error message above, make sure you have the right
package for your architecture.
"No module named smart" is just plain impossible.
cheers
