Package: apcupsd Version: 3.10.16-3 Severity: normal
The file '/etc/default/apcupsd' defines, among others, a variable named 'POWERFAIL', which gives the path and name of the marker file to be created after a power fail was detected by apcupsd.
Within '/etc/apcupsd/apccontrol', the default value of this variable (which is '/var/spool/apcupsd/powerfail') is hardcoded. So changing the value of 'POWERFAIL' in '/etc/default/apcupsd' will break proper script operation of 'apccontrol'.
Suggested fix: Source '/etc/default/apcupsd' in 'apccontrol' and use '${POWERFAIL}' where applicable.
hi,
my fault, POWERFAIL has to be hardcoded on apccontrol because it's done like
that during the ./configure process .
/etc/default/apcupsd is debian related so it's better to fix it rather the source code of apcupsd.
