<lukem@wasabisystems.com> that were slightly editted by me to have some
minimal functionality on pre-rc.d systems.
notable new features:
- upsdrvctl has more options. You can now say "stop" to stop all drivers, or
"stop <ups>" to stop just one. Also, "start <ups>" to just start one is
now supported.
- lots of man pages
- newapc driver converted to new framework
- new masterguard ups driver
- fentonups driver now recognizes the PowerCom SMK-800A
- bestups driver now does proper locking on the serial port
- sms driver table has been updated, and sms.txt provided to explain this
changes include:
- ups info moved to ups.conf instead of upsd.conf
- unified driver control between ups drivers
- upsmon doesn't run as root by default any more; most of the work is
done by an unprivileged child, with a parent only accepting shutdown
messages
- more model support:
- AEG Proect S. - aeg
- SMS Ltda (Brazillian) - sms
- SOLA 620 - bestups
- Ever UPS - everups
- various other improvements and bugfixes
see http://www.exploits.org/nut/release/new-0.45.1.txt for more details)
- use 'id' instead of 'finger'. this is not a real problem, but it
is enough and fixing the next problem makes it possible to use it.
- grep -q doesn't work on solaris, so use a different way to suppress
the output from the user check.
- the return code check for the user was reversed.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
