Comment 4 Thomas Andrews 2023-04-17 18:56:32 CEST 
Tested in a VirtualBox mga8-64 Plasma guest. Installed php-smarty, then used qarepo to update it, with no installation issues.

Previous updates have identified this as a developer's tool, and have approved it on a clean update. Since this updated OK, and shows no ill effects on the system, I'm giving it an OK, and validating. Advisory in comment 2.
