So, why does trying to install apcupsd drag along all of this "fontconfig libgd3 libjbig2 libjpeg8 libtiff5 libvpx1 libXpm4" ?

It installs CGI

%{apache_serverroot}/cgi-bin/multimon.cgi %{apache_serverroot}/cgi-bin/upsfstats.cgi %{apache_serverroot}/cgi-bin/upsstats.cgi %{apache_serverroot}/cgi-bin/upsimage.cgi

so all this stuff is likely needed to generate pretty pictures in your browser. May be it should be split into subpackage.

Thanks Andrei - how did you determine that those cgi scripts need $SUBJ - I can't see apcupsd itself requiring them? It is "upsimage.cgi" that's dragging it all in.

Stop, but there *is* cgi subpackage

%files cgi %defattr(-,root,root,-) %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/apache2/conf.d/%{name}.conf %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/%{name}.css %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/hosts.conf %config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/multimon.conf

Looks like a packaging bug.

Educated guess :)

But now when I am at my PC again ...

Dunno how I overlooked that one ... thanks. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=925374 I guess it's not a major issue, but it would certainly be nice to build apcupsd for use as a client without all this crud. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
