Ok,
Now I am rebuilding an el4 rpm based on el5 src.rpm. I will remove the --with-hal option in the configure part. In order a full featured rpm, I'm trying to keep every option unless hal.
But I am having problems with dependencies. libX11-devel,
xorg-x11-devel

libXpm-devel,
still xorg-x11-devel, if I am not mistaken

dbus-glib-devel
dbus-devel

and powerman-devel
not available, afaik
IIRC, I had to compile it for RHEL-5, and in turn it required some other packages (a newer curl, for instance)
I suggest to drop its usage


do not exist in RHEL 4... These are for RHEL5.
Does anyone know the equivalent dependencies for RHEL4? Another possibility is to disable the option that requires thoses dependencies. I didn't find a document explaining that so could you help. By disabling the troublemaker options, I can build a package for my particuliar configuration. Of course it will not help others... I put the RHEL5 spec file in attachement also. Merci,
Antoine

    Thanks for the info.
I use the first approach.
    So, if I understood well, the nut-hal support (ie, the --with-hal)
    is used only for the 2nd approach. Udev rules are dealt when using
    --with-usb.
    Is that correct?


mostly! the udev rules are used in both cases...
    If so, I might be able to rebuild the nut-2.4.1 pachage for RHEL4.
    For packaging help (I think I might need some for the next stage
    ;-) ) do I continue this thread or use the nut-packaging list (or
    both).


no, continue using the present thread.
nut-packaging is not really active, and I've created it originally as a placeholder for packagers discussions (related to the NUT Packaging Standard - NPS - topic)

cheers,
Arnaud

        I might ask a stupid question but isn't hal used to manage the
        UPS device
        and connection through udev rules?
        I though that hal was mostly usefull with usb...

        In the nut-hal document, it is said that HAL "allows NUT
        drivers to feed the
        HAL system, which will itself feeds
        applications such as the Gnome Power Manager"
        Does that mean hal is not used for managing the battery itself
        but sees the
        nut driver as a "pseudo real  battery"? In this case, indeed,
        I do not need
        it.
        I use upsmon for power management.


    not at all. there are 2 approaches:
    - the standard one, where you have a driver (usbhid-ups), upsd and
    upsmon.
    udev only applies the device privileges rules.
    - the Integrated Power Management approach, where NUT USB driver
    can feed data to HAL (instead of upsd), replacing the basic
    USB/HID support in HAL.
    Note that HAL is being superseded by DeviceKit and DeviceKit-power.
    This approach will probably be abandonned...

    use that one.
    install it and edit the spec.
    modifying --with-all by --with-usb should be sufficient.
