Bug 5534 – apcupsd 3.8.5 ebuild update

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Chris PeBenito (RETIRED) 2002-07-24 20:36:15 UTC]

Attached is an ebuild for apcupsd 3.8.5.  The ebuild is a slightly modified
version of the 3.8.1 ebuild, which is currently in the tree.  In addition to the
version bump, I added the optional support for nls, and optionally build an
ncurses pgm (powerflute) if ncurses is installed.  I set the keywords for x86
and ppc, since I sucsessfully compiled it, and running it on my mac (tcp
connection, not serial).  I also added a note in postinst that
/etc/init.d/halt.sh will need to be modified to shut off the UPS at the end of a
powerfail shutdown.

In addition, attached is a slightly modified rc script.  a use dependance for
net is added.  if the config is for network, apcupsd obviously needs to be
started after net.  however, it can also run fine w/o net if its a
serial-connected ups.

Updated rc script (obsoletes previous script)

change the start-stop-daemon command in stop() to use --pidfile

See also bug #7778 which provides an ebuild for apcupsd 3.9.9
It was created from this ebuild, so there may be parallel bugs. :)

version 3.10.1 is already in portage.
