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. -- Alexander _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
