It seems that m4/nut_check_libhal.m4 fails to detect the proper path where to install the .fdi files. I have no idea where these files live on FreeBSD, so could you please find out what to do here? Do these exist at all?

It's just /usr/local/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty (/usr/local vs. /usr). I added that to the directory test (r2196).

Should we be checking ${datarootdir} in the 'test' line?

Looking at the contents of m4/nut_check_libhal.m4 now, we probably should.

Should we have a --with-hal-fdi-path option so that we are not hardcoding a guess if the Debian/RedHat tests fall through?

This really should be fixed upstream in the hal.pc pkg-config file.

This question still stands. My thought was that users wouldn't need to specify it unless one of the existing tests falls through, but if the user *has* enabled HAL, and we don't know where to put a file, configure would bail unless the path was specified through one of the --with arguments. Or we could disable HAL support and keep going, if configure scripts should just charge ahead in the face of partial configuration information.

I'd prefer to disable HAL in this case. If needed, people can also manually add these to hal.pc (waiting for this to be fixed upstream).

Best regards, Arjen
