The only way to get these dependencies is to upgrade the whole system to 
lenny. I guess, this is not what you want to do.

It means you'll have to compile NUT from source. You have to install several 
packages before compiling, I think, at least build-essential, libtool, 
libusb-dev.

wget http://www.networkupstools.org/source/2.2/nut-2.2.2.tar.gz
tar -xzf nut-2.2.2.tar.gz
cd nut-2.2.2
./configure --help
# select needed options. I suggest you to specify --prefix=/home/user/path at
# this time.  If you want only megatec_usb, you can use
# --with-drivers=megatec_usb
./configure <options>
make
make install

Then check the path you specified in --prefix.
