Created attachment 416890 [details] ebuild for 3.14.13
Created attachment 416892 [details, diff] patch to add powerfail init script to upstream package
Created attachment 416894 [details] /etc/init.d/apcupsd-powerfail script
Created attachment 416896 [details] /etc/init.d/apcupsd script templlate
With this ebuild, I changed apcupsd.powerfail to apcupsd-powerfail, to avoid confusing this script with the script names of multiple apcupsd instances.
Changes in this ebuild: 1. changed apcupsd.powerfail to apcupsd-powerfail, to avoid confusing this script with the script names of multiple apcupsd instances. 2. changed EAPI to 5 3. removed || die commands after eutils 4. used upstream mechanism to generate /etc/init.d/{apcupsd,apcupsd-powerfail} to avoid having to hardcode piddir, powerfaildir, sysconfdir, etc. 5. use the apcupsd.conf of the upstream package. That appears saner than the one packaged in the files/. 6. nisip defaulted to 127.0.0.1 instead of leaving it at 0.0.0.0 7. removed the configure argument for nis-port, as it defaults to 3551 anyway. 8. changed default --with-pwrfail-dir to /run/apcupsd from /etc/apcupsd, to help in situations where /etc is read-only. ebuild also here: https://github.com/joe9/portage/blob/master/sys-power/apcupsd/apcupsd-3.14.13.ebuild
commit d2f026a3480457d00c8e6f8acfc4431892275dad Author: Lars Wendler <polynomial-c@gentoo.org> Date: Tue Dec 22 13:04:17 2015 sys-power/apcupsd: Bump to version 3.14.13 Package-Manager: portage-2.2.26 Signed-off-by: Lars Wendler <polynomial-c@gentoo.org> Unfortunately I missed your proposed changes. But to be honest incorporating them is more the topic of Matthew and thus I keep the bug open for him to maybe add a revbumped version of 3.14.13
(In reply to Joe M from comment #7) Would you please also change APCUPSD_MAIL from /bin/mail to /usr/bin/mail? The former no longer exists in current version of mail-client/mailx.
