[Nut-upsuser] Mustek PowerMust 600 USB configuration

[Janeks Kamerovskis]

Thanks, Alexander!

I tried both ways:
Both of them are asking for additional packages/libraries.

Do I need them at all? I am asking so because Bubba is device without
monitor i.e. no GUI things only ssh acces or web GUIs.

The console copy:

bubba:/home/janeks/dls# dpkg -i
nut_2.2.2-6.2~stable0_powerpc.debSelecting previously deselected package
nut.
(Reading database ... 33639 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking nut (from nut_2.2.2-6.2~stable0_powerpc.deb) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nut:
 nut depends on libupsclient1; however:
  Package libupsclient1 is not installed.
 nut depends on udev (>= 0.124-1); however:
  Version of udev on system is 0.105-4.
dpkg: error processing nut (--install):

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libgd2-xpm-dev: Depends: libfontconfig1-dev but it is not going to be
installed
                  Depends: libfreetype6-dev but it is not going to be
installed
                  Depends: libpng12-0-dev
                  Depends: libx11-dev but it is not going to be
installed or
                           xlibs-dev (< 4.3.0) but it is not installable
                  Depends: libxpm-dev but it is not going to be
installed or
                           xlibs-dev (< 4.3.0) but it is not installable
  nut: Depends: libupsclient1 but it is not installable
       Depends: udev (>= 0.124-1) but 0.105-4 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or
specify a solution).
bubba:/home/janeks/dls# apt-get install libupsclient1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Package libupsclient1 is not available, but is referred to by another
package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libupsclient1 has no installation candidate
