NAME
       update-smart-drivedb - update smartmontools drive database

SYNOPSIS
       update-smart-drivedb [-v] [DESTFILE]

DESCRIPTION
       update-smart-drivedb  updates  /usr/local/share/smartmontools/drivedb.h
       or DESTFILE from smartmontools SVN repository.

       It tries to download first from the current branch and then from trunk.
       The  tools used for downloading are either curl(1), wget(1) or lynx(1).
       On FreeBSD, fetch(1) is used as a fallback.

       The old file is kept if the downloaded file is identical (ignoring  the
       differences in Id string) otherwise it is moved to drivedb.h.old.

OPTIONS
       -v     verbose output

EXAMPLES
       # update-smart-drivedb
       /usr/local/share/smartmontools/drivedb.h updated from branches/RELEASE_6_4_DRIVEDB
