Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2010-12-08 13:53:17 UTC
Description of problem:
currently /etc/init.d/halt has the necessary section to support nut but not the bits needed for apcupsd

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-9.20.1-1.fc14.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a modern APC USB based UPS
2. install apcupsd
3. happily notice it all seems to work out of the box
  
Actual results:
killpower is not called when the system halts

Expected results:
give the end user a full 'out of the box' experience by adding a killpower section to /etc/init.d/halt

Additional info:
additionally, a user actually bothering to RTFM will look at /etc/init.d/halt and be unsure if the UPS section near the end is generic of specific to nut (it's the latter)

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2010-12-08 17:35:00 UTC
Given that this script is no longer used in rawhide (systemd handles halt), it's unlikely to get new features for F-14 and earlier.
