APC PDU powerman-pdu Driver

Problem/Motivation

Hi, i'm setting up my rack PDU using NUT. I saw in the online NUT documentation thath there is an experimental driver called "powerman-pdu" that should make the job done. Unfortunately this driver is not contained (i think) in this NUT addon. Here the log output:

[20:56:22] INFO: Configuring Device named PDU1_RACK... [20:56:22] INFO: Starting the UPS drivers...

From looking at the documentation, it isn't built by default, so requires a custom build. The addon installs NUT via the Debian sources, so it isn't something that would likely get implemented.

If you require this functionality, this addon likely isn't for you.
