Created attachment 451979 [details, diff] Add USE_EXPAND support for USB_DRIVERS When bug 480664 was fixed, USE_EXPAND support was not added for the ups_drivers_* USE flags. This makes it annoying to build with a single driver, as most drivers are built by default, and currently the only way to turn them off is to add -ups_drivers_* for each one to package.use. I know that touching USE_EXPAND requires permission from the -dev list, but I've gone ahead and attached a patch which implements adding UPS_DRIVERS to USE_EXPAND were that to be approved.
Pretty please, with sugar on top, add UPS_DRIVERS to USE_EXPAND.
Meanwhile, something like this in /etc/portage/package.use is ok: sys-power/nut -ups_drivers_* ups_drivers_usbhid-ups
Having a proper USE_EXPAND for this would be great. It would also be great if none of the drivers were enabled by default (or at least would only enable the specified drivers if UPS_DRIVERS was set).

This simplification not only streamlines the installation process but also resolves dependency issues associated with activating a driver and its corresponding unactivated connection. The updates align with the latest Gentoo specifications and are summarized below: Improvements: * Removed unused libnsl * Removed outdated hotplug * Utilized EAPI=8 * Default use of libusb-1 * Added connections for GPIO, i2c, and Modbus * Configuration parameters required per connection type * Fixed the creation of PID in /run/nut * Removed configurations no longer necessary for nut-2.8.0 or newer * Creation of man pages * Added a flag for documentation * Utilized tmpfile for creating temporary directories * Added Q5t5 monitor (nut-9999) * Disabled Python2 * Added Python3 library * Message for the optional function of sys-apps/util-linux[logger, tty-helpers] * Added configuration for Avahi * Added a flag for systemd (nut-9999) TODO: (in next version) * nut-scanner is not working * /etc/init.d/upslog requires parameters of SAI and log file Please note that I have tested different SAI drivers, but only with USB and SNMP connections. Any feedback or further testing on these updates would be highly appreciated.
