Experience building it?  Since it won't actually be doing any shutdown 
type control, I figure once built and installed, I can copy this 
machines /etc/ups contents over what is going to be installed and be not 
more than one edit away from running a "upsc myups" and getting a report 
from it.  Or am I dreaming? 

I do note that this ups has 3 rj45's on the end of it, but all my 
ethernet in that box is committed. I'd assume 2 of them are for surge 
absorption loop-thru's, but none of the 3 are actually labeled, so I've 
no clue which is which w/o reading what little docs came with it.  
Shrug. :)

Down to the mega-command, I left out the ssl and NSS, had to install 
libusb-dev but I see its not going to make docs. That needs fixed as 
most of that stuff is already installed. But adding --with-doc opens 
another can of worms:

A "make" says it needs aclocal, which is part of automake, but its newer 
than what it wants,  which is aclocal-1.14, but I have automake 
1:1.16.1-4.

Suggested fix?

Thanks Roger & Charles.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
