Package: apcupsd
Version: 3.10.16-6
Severity: minor

The new /etc/init.d/apcupsd relies on the new file /etc/default/apcupsd.
It appears to me that unless the latter is edited (away from
ISCONFIGURED=no) the startup script (/etc/init.d/apcupsd) will fail.

I think this should be flagged in a NEWS file for upgraders.  At any
rate, I don't even see mention of it in the Debian changelog.

Perhaps if the file is installed on an upgrade it could be
automatically modified to ISCONFIGURED=yes.  At any rate, that is how
I have reset the file, and I hope that works.

Finally, the default file is not documented, as far as I can tell.
Minimally, some comments might help.
