As far as I know, Mandriva 2011.0 is not released and there is nobody working on developing/testing Smart 1.4 on it.

The info.xml.lzma file is used for some of the info, like source/url/license etc, not in the "synthesis" file.

Presumably this internal error stopped it from working/completing properly ?

Still think it's related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/smart/+bug/244605
