Package: nut Version: 2.7.1-1 Severity: normal On upgrade ups.conf new configuration file proposes, on the last line, a:
maxretry = 3 option. The option is not supported by usbhid-ups driver that consequently refuses to start: # upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.1 Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.38 (2.7.1) USB communication driver 0.32 Fatal error: 'maxretry' is not a valid variable name for this driver. Look in the man page or call this driver with -h for a list of valid variable names and flags. This prevents using the ups. upsc will report: Init SSL without certificate database Error: Driver not connected Since the driver was never started. Commenting the option fixes the problem. Proposed fix is to comment the option by default, report upstream that usbhid-ups should accept/ignore it, then re-enable the option.
