Thanks Bryan. I’m out on travel for another week but I should be able to take a look when I get back. You might try digging around APC’s site - they have a habit of moving things around when a new release is made.
No urgency. I've already tooled around the site but seemed to be unable to come up with a viable link to v4.4.0.
Friendly ping.
(In reply to Zsolt Udvari from comment #3) Thanks! I'll try to take a look this week.
I have some bad news. I have a branch with 5.1.0 ported, however it appears that APC had begun bundling Linux .so's for license management. This port can no longer be used on FreeBSD without significant heroics. I'm going to close this issue and begin the process of removing pcns from ports. I suggest taking a look at APCUPSD using the pcnet driver.
(In reply to Steven Stallion from comment #5) Could you create a patch about expiration date (https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/book/#dads-deprecated) or should I do it?
(In reply to Zsolt Udvari from comment #6) Certainly. I can have a patch ready to go this evening.
(In reply to Steven Stallion from comment #7) Thanks!
