[Fwd: Re: [Nut-upsuser] Install problem & Geek Squad UPS]

[Gary Redden]

Here is what I found in the nut-2.0.5 top level directory. Where do I 
get the correct version?
============================================================================

  Build and install
  =================


 1. Configure the source tree for your system.  Add the --with-user
    switch to set the user name that you created above.  If you need
    any other switches for configure, add them here.

    ./configure --with-user=nut

    If you alter paths with additional switches, be sure to use those
    new paths while reading the rest of the steps.   

    *** Reference: docs/configure.txt
