Hello all, I request a new NUT release as current dates back to March 9, 2016: NUT 2.7.4 The fact stays that not all distro's use latest snapshots/commits from github dev tree. So please do release a new up to date version please. Thank you Dutchman -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I'll take this hit: Dutchman01, why should there be a new version released? Is there a significant problem with the current version, or major functionality that is missing? Releasing a new version for the sake of an updated version number isn't a reason for releasing an update.

And you can source build the current version from source on pretty much anything, thus negating any value of distro centric packaging . . .

It's been running fine, for the last 4-5 months, or so; subject to Tripplite's typical crappiness, of course. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
