- Update from version 2.7.4 to 2.8.0
- 2.7.4 was released in 2016 and since then not a lot of progress was made with it but
since the start of 2022 new work on nut has ocurred culminating in this release
- Update of rootfile
- Ran find-dependencies on the old libraries due to the sobump to confirm that nothing
else than nut used them, which was the case.
- Changelog
After a long and windy trip since the last official release v2.7.4 half a dozen
years ago, we the community, contributors and maintainers are proud to announce
at last the general availability of NUT v2.8.0!
As always, the new release includes numerous new drivers, sub-drivers, protocols
and bug-fixes, with many companies and individuals chipping in with contributions
of code.Thanks to everyone involved in making this happen, inspiring the changes,
and providing the open-source friendly infrastructure.
This release also culminates a significant effort in improvements of NUT QA and
CI, and as a result -- in codebase quality and portability across a decade or
two of recent platforms, third-party tools and other dependencies. As a side
effect, public API (in headers and libraries) has changed a bit, hence a new
semantic "minor" number is claimed for this major body of work.
During this time, the https://networkupstools.org/ web site has changed to a
rolling-release model to serve current information to match the evolving
codebase. There are now special Sub-sites for historic releases to keep
documentation snapshots relevant for users of packages which are typically based
on official NUT releases.
We recognize that NUT is an important piece of infrastructure which gets built
into all sorts of devices, projects and operating systems -- some of which the
team never heard of until they pop up in a question, and others we haven't heard
of for years -- so we take a seriously omnivorous stance towards covering many
versions and implementations of compiler suites, C/C++ revisions, make programs,
shell and other scripted language interpreters, OSes and CPUs, and other similar
variables tamed with our new NUT CI farm test matrix dynamically driven by
currently registered build agents and their declared capabilities.
Sections in the NEWS and UPGRADING files about changes since last release are
several pages long, so would not all be repeated here. A few important
highlights for distribution packagers and custom builders follow, however:
NUT now supports more i2c and modbus devices, as well as libusb-1.0 support
as an alternative to earlier libusb-0.1 (so new dependency-based categories
of packages for drivers may be due);
NUT Python modules and scripts (e.g. NUT-Monitor variants) should work with
python-2.7 and with python-3.x, so covering historic distro releases as
well as new ones (and so your distro can deliver one or both, probably in
several packages with different dependencies in the latter case);
NUT provides revised reference systemd and SMF service unit definitions,
including support of drivers wrapped into individual service instances with
varying dependencies based on different media required (networked stack, USB
stack, etc.), and many daemons include -F option for running "in foreground"
to avoid extra forking after one already done by a service framework - you
may want to use those in your packaged deliverables;
NUT newly provides the "nut-driver-enumerator" script and service, which
allows it to follow edition of ups.conf and dynamically define+(re)start and
stop+undefine service instances for drivers - there are several ways it can
be integrated for different use-cases;
There are several new configuration keywords and CLI options - so while new
NUT builds should work with old configs and scripts, the opposite is not
necessarily true (old binaries may reject configurations taking advantage
of new features);
There are several new protocol keywords - but old and new NUT daemons (data
server and clients) should be able to communicate both ways;
It is assumed that API/ABI changes may require third-party NUT clients
(library consumers of libnutclient, libupsclient, libnutscan... -- their
version info was bumped accordingly) to get rebuilt, in order to work with
the new NUT release in a stable fashion;
The dummy-ups driver used in automated testing now processes *.dev filename
patterns once and does not loop, like it still does for *.seq and other
files (by default);
USB code is now more strict about logical minimum/maximum ranges for data
reported from devices, and some devices were already found to make mistakes
- so there is also a mechanism for turning a blind eye to known issues and
fix-up such report descriptors to produce intended sane values;
New documentation page docs/config-prereqs.txt highlights packaged
dependencies installable on a large range of platforms to build as much of
NUT as possible (incidentally, ones NUT CI farm uses to test every iteration);
Finally, we hope that NUT codebase might be able to cater for everyone "out
of the box" (it also simplifies local builds from GitHub sources on any
systems, for troubleshooting and checking pre-release enhancements): if you
as a packager have to apply patches for your distribution, give it a thought
-- whether they address a common issue best solved upstream once and behave
similarly for everyone (and conversely, if your platform can do with
existing solutions already tracked in the NUT version du-jour). PRs welcome!
Or at least Wiki entries to list all the distro efforts for cross-pollination
