I wrote to APC suggesting that they support the apcupsd project rather than build and support their own software, which just distracts them from their core business. I'd suggest everybody else do the same.
A long time ago I had to install powerchute onto a Solaris box. I was very impressed at the way the install script documented what it did, kept backups of all the files it changed, and slotted itself in. If only all software was as polite.

According to APC, there are three components to PowerChute: agent server console Only the agent is supported on Linux. The other two components require Windows. Does your configuration include a Windows system? Is the agent alone somehow useful?
