It is likely that you have built new nut but old nut is still on your

Should i purge it?
that would make sense, although I recommend installing debian package -
debian cares about upgrades in such cases.
unless you really really need, use debian packages.
I can second that, but have a big BUT... Debian unstable ("sid") and the
upcoming release ('bookworm", current "testing") both have NUT 2.8.0
(the 7th build of it), see https://packages.qa.debian.org/n/nut.html
for details and download links.
I didn't find any suitable ready-made backport, so I did a "naive" backport
myself - to Buster and Bullseye for amd64 and arm64.
I.e. only added a "2.8.0-7~" entry to debian/changelog and packaged that,
without any further changes. See dpkg-buildpackage(1)
(Why a backport? Because the "real" 2.8.0-7 is supposed to overwrite the
derived package set when upgrading to Bookworm. You're not supposed to
use "sid" or "testing" packages on an older system though.)
HTH,
Steffen
unfortunately, I'm stuck on buster cuz linuxcnc-master won't build with
the newer python. till bookworm is out. So I'm trying to build from the
2.8.1 tarball. Its almost moot, the ups even with a dead battery will
hold up the 6-7 seconds it take the standby to start.
So now that I've destroyed the 2.7.4, it can wait till bookworm 12-2 or
-3 is ready. And I try to build a 6.2 or similar preempt-rt kernel for
arm64 & see if its quick enough to run machinery.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
