Hello Sergey

thanks for your mail.
I'm adding explicitly Emilien, who may have some additional comments...


I got some complementary questions, to ensure we bring a suitable solution
to your issue:

- which exact system are you running?
- which version of glibc?
- you said that stl is present. Do you have actually the "libstdc++-dev"
(Debian like) equivalent package / files installed for glibc.
I.e, is there something under /usr/include/c++/3.3.6 and / or
/usr/include/c++/3.3

For the sake of completion, libnutclient is more a developer oriented lib,
more high level and easier to use, and C++ / C usable.
While libupsclient is just the historic internal lib that I once exported
to create the first external NUT client (wmnut, back in 2001) and later
more 3rd party ones...

thanks and cheers,
Arno
