Update apcupsd package to 3.14.14.
3.14.14 -- 31 May 2016
BUG FIXES
* win32: Fix missing DLLs when installing only apctray
* Fixes for socket error handling. Resolves apcaccess crash when connection
fails as well as several other theoretical issues.
* MODBUS/USB error handling (COMMLOST) improvements for faulty USB links
* Fix hiddev binding when usbfs is mounted on /dev/bus/usb instead of
/proc/bus/usb. This is necessary for switching between MODBUS/USB and
USB/HID on Linux.
* Update GPLv2 text and FSF address to match current versions from FSF.
* Various fixes for potential issues suggested by Coverity Scan
* MacOS X port support for El Capitan System Integrity Protection (SIP)
aka "rootless"
* Fix shutdown failure on Windows when UPSNAME includes spaces
* Fix building bsd-usb driver
(This was broken when modbus-usb support was added.)
FEATURES
* Add status display for output current as well as apparent power
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
3.14.14 was tagged but not released, 3.14.13 is the last release, hence
apcupsd-3.14.13r2365.
- Remove use of BSD USB driver; all platforms except Linux use generic-usb now
- i18n support removed
3.14.14 -- 30 May 2015

3.14.13 -- 02 February 2015
NEW FEATURES
* MODBUS USB support
Previous releases supported MODBUS serial (RS232). This release adds
support for MODBUS over USB. This protocol is preferable to the normal
USB HID driver because it offers access to more UPS data readouts and
controls. The only configuration file change needed versus MODBUS serial
is to change UPSCABLE to usb and use an empty DEVICE setting. See the
MODBUS section of the apcupsd manual for more details.
* Support for Apple Notification Center on Mac OS X (replaces Growl)
* Apple install packages and binaries are signed with an Apple Developer
key for compatibility with Gate Keeper
* Windows USB driver has been updated with additional USB identifiers to
support future APC products.
BUG FIXES
* Use launchd for startup on Mac OS X as the old Startup Items mechanism is
no longer supported in 10.10 and above
* Fix apcaccess on ARM systems where char is unsigned by default
* Fix several potential issues identified by Coverity static analysis
* Numerous other fixes and improvements all over the code, many of them
submitted by users...Thank you!
MISC
* Windows port now builds with the same configure and make system as the
other targets, no need to maintain a special hardcoded Makefile.
* Many cleanups to the Windows port codebase
* Prebuilt binaries for Mac OS X no longer support PowerPC systems or
Mac OS X 10.4 and older
3.14.12 -- 29 March 2014 (Maintenance Release)
NEW FEATURES
* apcaccess and apcupsd status format updates to ease parsing by scripts
* UPS name is included in subject line of emails in default scripts
* Default event scripts pull SYSADMIN and APCUPSD_MAIL definitions from a
common config file so they can easily be configured in one place
BUG FIXES
* Fix issue with certain Back-UPS USB models repeatedly cycling power on/off
after killpower is issued
* Fix display of battery level during MODBUS calibration
* Fix apctest EEPROM setting on various models
* Close and reopen serial port during extended COMMLOST in apcsmart driver
(helps recover connection when USB serial port dongles are reconnected)
* Avoid probing non-APC USB devices as it can cause lockups
* Fix issue with service failing to start on Windows during boot with USB UPS
* Fix bogus lock file error when config file error forces early termination
* Fix MODBUS NOMOUTV reading for voltages other than 120VAC
* Fix LOADPCT (CI_LOAD) on MODBUS driver
* Fix issue with net driver not reporting MODEL value
3.14.11 -- 31 January 2014 (Maintenance Release)
NEW FEATURES
* MODBUS protocol support
Over the summer, APC publicly released documentation[1] on a new UPS
control and monitoring protocol, loosely referred to as MODBUS (after the
historic industrial control protocol it is based on). The new protocol
operates over RS232 serial lines as well as USB connections and is intended
to supplement APC's proprietary Microlink protocol. Microlink is not going
away, but APC has realized that third parties require access to UPS status
and control information. Rather than publicly open Microlink, they have
created another protocol to operate along side it.
Many existing Microlink UPSes can be upgraded to support MODBUS via a
firmware update. See [2]. Certain older models are not upgradeable. APC
support will be your best contact for determining if your UPS supports a
MODBUS upgrade the information linked below does not make it clear.
For now, apcupsd supports MODBUS over RS232 serial only. It DOES NOT yet
support MODBUS over USB. See the apcupsd manual[3] for information on
setting up apcupsd.conf for MODBUS UPSes.

* Windows USB driver is now digitally signed thanks to Jernej Simoncic
<jernej's-sflist@eternallybored.org>
3.14.10 -- 13 September 2011 (Maintenance Release)
BUG FIXES
* Fix missing status and spurrious incorrect status on newer BackUPS CS
models using USB interface.
* USB compatibility fixes for Mac OS X Lion
* USB driver support for newer Microlink models on Mac OS X Lion and Windows
* Ignore transitions to battery due to calibration (possible if user
initiates calibration, then exits apctest and starts apcupsd before
calibration completes.
* Fix truncation of long UPS model names such as "Smart-UPS RT 5000 XL"
* Fix MODEL vs. APCMODEL confusion. Remove APCMODEL and rename old MODEL
aka 'mode' to DRIVER.

to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
Suggested by tron in PR 47882
Dragonfly users, please test that is still builds !
pkgsrc change: as snmp support doesn't depend on net-snmp
anymore, remove snmp option and always build snmp support.
cgi option now depend on graphics/gd/

2010-08-30 14:18 adk0212
* src/drivers/snmplite/: mge-mib.cpp, mge-oids.h, mibs.cpp:
Add support for MGE SNMP MIB. Contributed by Lars Täer
<taeuber@bbaw.de>
2010-07-30 18:04 adk0212
* src/drivers/snmplite/: apc-mib.cpp, apc-oids.h, mib.cpp, oids.h,
rfc1628-mib.cpp, rfc1628-oids.h, snmplite.cpp, snmplite.h:
Add support for RFC1628 SNMP MIB. Refactor APC MIB and create
MibStrategy struct for associating MIB/CI mapping with
corresponding processing function. RFC1628 strategy is coded per
the MIB but untested.
2010-01-10 10:29 adk0212
* include/defines.h, src/apctest.c, src/drivers/usb/usb.c:
Add apctest support for reading/setting self-test interval on USB.
Also show current setting in UPS status. Contributed by James
Belleau <jpbelleau@gmail.com>

src/lib/apcstatus.c:
Add SNMP Lite driver which does not depend on net-snmp library.
This makes it more portable and eliminates need to move libsnmp.so
to /lib in order to do a killpower on systems where /usr is
unmounted.
2009-09-01 20:30 adk0212
* src/apctest.c:
Implement battery calibration in apctest for USB models. Thanks to
James Belleau <james@belleau.net> for the original implementation
which has been modified somewhat in this commit.
2009-05-02 10:30 adk0212
* src/action.c:
Change log level of UPS self-test messages to WARNING from ALERT.
Given that self-test messages are routine, they do not belong at
LOG_ALERT. Contributed by Dave Ewart <davee@ceu.ox.ac.uk>.
2009-04-25 10:58 adk0212
* src/lib/apcconfig.c:
Remove EVENTFILE, EVENTFILEMAX config directives. These were
replaced by the plural versions that are in use today (EVENTSFILE,
EVENTSFILEMAX) almost 10 years ago. It's time to kill the old
names. (h/t Trevor Roydhouse <trev@sentry.org>)

Add support for turning the UPS off completely. This complements
existing hibernate (aka killpower) functionality. Turn-off is
implemented for apcsmart and USB drivers, subject to support for
the relevant commands in the UPS itself. Contributed by Keith
Campbell <campbell@econnectix.com>.
2008-06-29 11:12 adk0212
* src/action.c:
Fix bug in LOWBATT glitch handling. We must examine LOWBATT for
changes every time thru the status loop, not just during the
OnBattery state. Otherwise we can miss the initial LOWBATT
assertion, which defeats the glitch rejection logic.
2008-05-06 20:16 skoona
* src/gapcmon/gapcmon.c:
Corrected the use of NOMPOWER and the calc of current usage amount
2008-05-04 11:13 adk0212
* src/drivers/usb/usb.c:
Add a heuristic to fix up incorrect NOMINV or NOMOUTV. Some UPSes
(RS 500) report decivolts instead of volts. Reported by Kirill S.
Bychkov <yason@linklevel.net>.
2008-01-27 12:00 adk0212

platforms/mingw/apcupsd.conf.in, src/device.c,
src/drivers/net/net.c, src/drivers/snmp/drv_powernet.c,
src/lib/apcconfig.c:
Add POLLTIME directive to control UPS polling interval. NETTIME is
accepted as a synonym for compatibility with old config files.
3.14.3 -- 20 January 2008 (Maintenance Release)
NEW FEATURES
* A HAL policy file is automatically installed on Linux systems to disable
the hald-addon-hid-ups module which conflicts with apcupsd's control of
USB UPSes. The file is automatically removed when apcupsd is
uninstalled.
BUG FIXES
* Add support for Nominal Power (aka Configured Active Power) reading.
Credit to Lars Randers <lars@nstec.dk> for most of the code.
* Add units to NOMINV, NOMOUTV, and NOMBATTV stats.
* Eliminate "warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to
'char*'" warnings emitted from gcc-4.2.1 (earlier versions with
-Wwrite-strings). Contributed by Steve Yarmie <tribhuvanji@gmail.com>.
* Fix killpower and eeprom settings bug on USB modules introduced when
INPUT reports were prioritized over FEATURE reports.
* Fix bugs that could cause NIS-net driver to get stuck waiting for
comms to be restored instead of shutting down.
3.14.2 -- 15 September 2007 (Maintenance Release)
NEW FEATURES
* Tray icon support on Vista. Vista does not allow background services
to interact with the user's desktop, so winapcupsd's built-in tray
icon did not work.
* Tray icon is now a standalone application "apctray" which is capable of
monitoring multiple Apcupsd instances via Apcupsd's NIS. Any Apcupsd
running NIS can be monitored. By default the icon monitors a single
apcupsd at 127.0.0.1:3551. See command line options below for adding
additional monitors.
* Tray icon can be installed individually (disable other packages in the
installer) for users who want to use the icon only.
* Apctray command line options:
apctray.exe
- No parameters: Start any instances listed in registry. If no
instances in reg, start a default instance monitoring the local
machine (127.0.0.1:3551).
apctray.exe /host foo /port 3551 /add
- Add a monitor for the given host and port.
apctray.exe /host foo /port 3551 /del
- Remove the given monitor.
apctray.exe /del
- Remove all monitors.
apctray.exe /install
- Configure apctray to start automatically.
apctray.exe /remove
- Do not start automatically.
apctray.exe /kill
- Shut down apctray
BUG FIXES
* The win32 portions of winapcupsd have been almost entirely rewritten.
The code is cleaner (mostly) and lots of unused baggage has been
removed.
* USB fix for BackUPS LCD series. This fix carries a risk of breaking
other
models, but test results are positive so far.
* Fix linux-usb device detection bug when multiple hiddev nodes are
present. Fixes Fedora Bugzilla #245864:
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=245864>
* Fix SNMP port selection when using SNMP driver
* Add workaround for broken BackUPS Pro model that returns certain
reports encoded in ASCII. Based on a patch from David Fries
<David@Fries.net>.
* apcsmart: Wait 20 seconds before declaring COMMLOST. This is necessary
when using a smart serial cable on an UPS with an SNMP monitoring card
installed. The SNMP card appears to disrupt serial comms for several
seconds when interesting events are in progress.
* Documentation updates: Fix up udev info for modern Linux distros.
Update Windows section for apctray.
* Don't leak unnecessary descriptors to child when execing apccontrol.
* Fix bug with multi-threaded net_open() calls. net_open() was using
a global buffer for the destination address. Yikes! Bug manifestied
itself in apctray with multiple monitors occasionally (and
timing-dependently) pointing to the wrong UPS.
* Correct multimon.conf humidity monitoring. Problem fixed by
Patrick Frei. Reference:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=199834
* Fix race between attach_ups() and detach_ups() which could result
in the UPSINFO structure being freed prematurely. Thanks to James
Abbott <j.abbott@imperial.ac.uk> for running many tests to help me
find this bug.
* Remove dependency on libc++ (again). Must use gcc as linker when
using libsupc++ since g++ automatically links against full libc++.
As a side effect this should make apcupsd build on netbsd-4 and current.
pkgsrc changes: cgi and snmp are now enabled by default.
Relevant changes since 3.12.4:
Unreliable MASTER/SLAVE networking mode is removed
PowerChute Network Shutdown driver (protocol available in the AP9617 family
of smart slot modules)
New configuration directives to set paths at runtime
