update-smart-drivedb updates /var/lib/smartmontools/drivedb/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),
lynx(1), or svn(1).
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.

--cacert FILE
Use CA certificates from FILE to verify the peer.
