Description of problem: upscmd can't be run because nut is built with tcpwrapper support but can't read /etc/hosts.deny Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nut-2.7.4-13.fc27.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: [root@xxx ~]# ls -l /etc/hosts.deny -rw-------. 1 root root 848 Jan 30 2015 /etc/hosts.deny [root@xxx ~]# upscmd -u admin mge beeper.disable Password: Unexpected response from upsd: ERR ACCESS-DENIED [root@xxx ~]# chmod 666 /etc/hosts.deny [root@xxx ~]# upscmd -u admin mge beeper.disable Password: OK [root@xxx ~]# chmod 600 /etc/hosts.deny journalctl shows this : Apr 16 19:11:16 xxx upsd[1854]: warning: cannot open /etc/hosts.deny: Permission denied Additional info: As tcp wrapper is on the way out, I'd suggest explicitly disabling tcpwrapper support, as tcpwrapper-devel is pulled by some other build dependency.
Please take a look at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nut/pull-request/2 for a fix and also some miscellaneous cleanups.
Merged, thanks. Just one small thing, please add a reasoning for changes that are not obvious, like why you've added cppunit-devel BR.
I've added the BR on cppunit-devel because it was marked as missing by configure and an unit test framework is mentionned in the changelog. However, it doesn't seem like any unit test is actually run during the build. it would need to be looked at more closely. I probably shouldn't have added the cppunit part in the PR, so feel free to revert if you wish.
This is still not fixed in neither f27 nor F28. Could you please build these branches ?

This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
