This is not what we want. The '=' sign, means an assignment is made,
while we really want to do a comparison '=='.

I'm not 100% sure, but I suspect this might be a RedHat bug. The scripts
work as expected here, although I don't have a UPS handy to test this
with (someone on this list promised one, but so far it has not arrived).
