Bug Description
drobo-utils package is out of date with upstream.
Ubuntu version: 0.6.1+repack-2
Upstream version: 0.6.2.2
This project needs to be updated to support newer Drobo models with vendor string "Drobo". Older models have a different string "Data Robotics". Details can be found here:

Running the following command will result in "No Drobos discovered":
$ sudo drobom -v 16 status
examining: /dev/sdh
id: (15, 0, 0, 0, 'Drobo\
rejected: vendor is Drobo (not from DRI)
examining: /dev/sdi
id: (15, 0, 0, 1, 'Drobo\
rejected: vendor is Drobo (not from DRI)
returning list: []
No Drobos discovered
Updating the package to the pre-built one from SourceForge adds support for newer models of Drobo.
