I get the same error message attempting to start smc version 1.9+git20120222-0ubuntu2 on Ubuntu Raring. To check if this issue should be pushed upstream, I tried version 1.9+git20120222-1 in Debian unstable but that ran without any trouble. This leads me to believe this is an Ubuntu-specific issue (might be due to the delta?)
