I don't even know how much pardon to beg on this one ... a lot for sure. I'm coming by trying to clear bugs that are dormant for too long - and this one is really way too long :-/
Anyway forget the past and work on it ... Now this is fixed in Zesty and later due to merging 2.7.4.

The required change was to rename the udev rule like this: mv /lib/udev/rules.d/{5,6}2-nut-usbups.rules Now, everything works well, without requiring "user = root" in /etc/nut/ups.conf because the udev rule now ensures the device file is owned by the group "nut": # find /dev/bus/usb/ -ls 1536 0 drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 200 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/ 1579 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/008 1580 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/008/001 1573 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/007 1574 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/007/001 1567 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/006 1568 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/006/001 1561 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/005 1562 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/005/001 1555 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/004 1556 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/004/001 1549 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 80 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/003 2163 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root nut Jan 15 12:49 /dev/bus/usb/003/002 1550 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/003/001 1543 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/002 1544 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/002/001 1537 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jan 15 12:40 /dev/bus/usb/001 1538 0 crw-rw-r-- 1 root root Jan 15 12:41 /dev/bus/usb/001/001 Generic information: # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS Release: 10.04 # apt-cache policy nut nut: Installed: 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.2 Candidate: 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.2 Version table: *** 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates/main Packages 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-security/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.4.3-1ubuntu3 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: nut 2.4.3-1ubuntu3.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-45.102-server 2.6.32.60+drm33.26 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-45-server x86_64 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Jan 15 12:43:46 2013 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nut To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nut/+bug/1099947/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
