And not required ATM:

martin@merkaba:~> rmadison smartmontools | cut -c1-70
 smartmontools | 5.36-8                   | etch            | source,

 smartmontools | 5.41+svn3365-1           | wheezy          | source, 
 smartmontools | 5.41+svn3365-1           | sid             | source,

Last backport was for Lenny, but there appears to be someone doing 
backports for this package.
