Hello again,
Back when I last wrote I had submitted the patch request to the apcupsd
project using their recommended procedure of a mailing list post, but
have not heard any feedback about it yet. Given that the apcupsd project
has not been much development lately and it has been more than two years
since their last release, that may be a very slow way for the patch to
make it's way into the FreeBSD ports tree.
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=BAY147-W26409A36B1611A87DB5D4DC3F50%40phx.gbl&forum_name=apcupsd-users
In the mean time, it would be great to have the patched applied to the
FreeBSD ports tree. That way those who are using APC 9606 devices on
their networks will not have to hand patch the source to avoid it
dumping core on startup. :)
Thanks again,
Birch

Sure, I will do that as well.
It looks like not much development has happened since late 2011, so who
knows when they will push out their next release.

I have no problem integrating this patch, but it should be really
submitted upstream ...

Hello again,
Just did an upgrade to FreeBSD 9.1 and I noticed that the apcupsd
port still has this crash and requires the patch. It would be
fantastic if the patch below could be integrated into the port for
those of us who are using 9606 SNMP cards.
Also adding a CC to [email protected] in case the email address for
the port maintainer is not being checked.
Many thanks!

Hello,
The current version of apcupsd in the ports tree for FreeBSD 8.3 no
longer works with APC ups's connected via APC 9606 SNMP cards.
Would it be possible to get the following patch added to the port,
and/or passed upstream?
The link below describes the problem and fix in more detail, I have
included their patch in this email. I have verified that this patch
fixes resolves the issue on FreeBSD 8.3 and allows apcupsd to run
without crashing on startup.
Thank you,
birch
