Package: apcupsd Version: 3.14.12-1.2 Severity: important There is a much newer version of apcupsd available from upstream, and has been available for over a year (2015-02-03). 3.14.12 was released on 2014-03-29. It appears the packages debian/watch file is also not working which may be why this was overlooked. They did not enumerate all the bug fixes over than to state they were numerous (see below).
https://sourceforge.net/projects/apcupsd/files/apcupsd%20-%20Stable/3.14.13/ - Chris Cheney === 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
