It's not in Debian yet:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/lm-sensors

Gentoo have picked it but it is still in testing:
https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sys-apps/lm_sensors

You'll know better than I do about Fedora.

For openSUSE, I have packaged lm-sensors 3.5.0 but with a patch
reverting the undue soname change. I used "4.5.0" instead. I intend to
carry this patch for as long as I have to. This goes against our policy
of sticking to upstream as much as possible, but in this specific case,
I consider it the least of 2 evils.

Thanks,
