A log file or error description would be a good start...

It passes the unit tests on Fedora 20, always something ?

Total failures: 0
Total tests: 938

Or do you mean that the packaging was broken, for years ?
It was finally deleted in fc20, after being left to rot.


I only tested with CentOS, since Fedora doesn't support it.
And only tested with Debian, since Ubuntu doesn't either.

Suppose one could set up buildbots, if it was important...


But smart needs a downstream maintainer, or it won't work.

e.g. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=253184

And with it being thrown out of PackageKit, seems unlikely ?
