Description:
Network UPS Tools (NUT) is a package for Uninterruptible Power Supply management. Since NUT v2.8.0, drivers for several new UPS models, including generic_modbus, phoenixcontact_modbus, huawei-ups2000, socomec_jbus, and adelsystem_cbi are added (I'm the author of one of the drivers). However, the use of these drivers requires an external library libmodbus installed and the build option --with-modbus switched on when building NUT. On Arch, the package nut is provided, but as of nut 2.8.0-1, it doesn't have Modbus support enabled. Thus, users of Modbus-based UPS systems cannot manage them on Arch via NUT. The external library libmodbus is also currently not packaged by Arch, and it's AUR-only. nut should add a Modbus build option, and it should be enabled by default to allow users of these UPS models to use the binary package without rebuilding from port. |

Also, the I2C drivers also need an external library libi2c and the
build option --with-linux_i2c.
