sysutils/nut: Install nut-usb.conf

2023-04-06T21:45:49Z

devd fails to change UPS device node ownership because the nut port fails to install ${LOCALBASE}/etc/devd/nut-usb.conf. Install it. Reported by: Kostas Oikonomou MFH: 2023Q2

sysutils/nut*: Make nut file ownership fixes optional with default enabled

2023-02-14T18:40:00Z

The nut file ownership fixups due to the UID/GID change from uucp/uucp to nut/nut may not be desireable for all users. Some users with custom file ownership may wish ownership to remain untouched. This revision to the nut family of ports/packages allows users to optionally disable automatic fixup of nut file ownership. While at it, rather than use a hardcoded string for user/group ownerships, use the set parameters in Makefile. PR: 269497 suggested by: dvl

sysutils/nut*: Add missing SUB_LIST

2023-02-11T16:15:46Z

a4cc1509a9b6 failed to add NUT_GROUP to SUB_LIST. This fixes the error. PR: 269497 Submitted by: dvl Reported by: dvl Fixes: a4cc1509a9b6

IPMI is not supported by ARM. Remove it from defaults. Reported by: avg

sysutils/nut*: Fix nut file access

2023-02-10T18:26:33Z

Preexisting nut files will have uucp group permissions, which will no longer be available to nut because it runs under its own GID. For the time being add code to nut_prestart() adjusting the ownership of the files to UID nut and GID nut. This code should be removed approximately a year from now as it is expected that most if not all nut installations will have correct file ownership by then. While here, also fix nut.newsyslog to refer to the new nut UID/GID. Reported by: avg, Mathieu Fixes: 02c038c8cc15

sysutils/nut*: Fix group for serial UPS users.

2023-01-23T16:31:29Z

02c038c8cc15, though more secure, broke access to serial devices for users of serial UPS devices. Add the nut user to the dialer group. PR: 268960 Reported by: vvd@unislabs.com Fixes: 02c038c8cc15

sysutils/nut*: Use a dedicated UID and GID

2023-01-17T21:12:13Z

To reduce conflicts with other packages and improve security, avoid using the uucp UID and GID. This avoids potential conflicts with the net/freebsd-uucp port. Users who wish to continue using the uucp user and group may add NUT_USER=uucp and NUT_GROUP=uucp to their make.conf. PR: 268960 Reported by: delphij MFH: 2023Q1

sysutils/nut*: Remove bash_completion dependency

2022-10-22T16:58:46Z

Even though bash completion scripts are installed, bash_completion need not be installed, reducing the port and package footprint. Should a person actually need bash_completion, it can be installed separately by the user. PR: 267214 Reported by: Mel Pilgrim MFH: 2022Q4

sysutils/nut*: Require devd prior to start

2022-10-17T18:20:13Z

In some cases nut may start before devd causing it to fail because it lacks permissions to USB attached UPS devices. The nut supplied devd.conf ensures that nut has read/write access to the UPS. PR: 267144 Reported by: ml@netfence.it MFH 2022Q4
