Description Nathan Phillip Brink (binki) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-07-21 00:45:57 UTC 
This ebuild gives a ton of info about the CGI component of apcupsd. I think it should also suggest that the user enable CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV in his/her kernel when the usb useflag is enabled.
Maybe it can detect if the kernel was built with/without CONFIG_USB_HIDDEV. However, this is merely for helping the user. I recognize that the build should not require the presence of kernel sources :-)
