**********************

****************************
* USB Support Now Standard *
****************************

USB support is now standard. The apcupsd-std and apcupsd-usb packages are now
obsoleted and replaced by package apcupsd. Serial port users may refer to the
manual to configure for serial port UPS units. Upgrades, of course, will not
overwrite your current config file.

****************************************
* CGI Programs Now Packaged Separately *
****************************************

The CGI monitoring programs are now packaged separately in apcupsd-multimon. The 
cgi programs will install to the distribution appropriate apache directory and 
the configuration files in /etc/apcupsd are installed with appropriate ownership 
for the distribution.

*****************************
* New Gnome Monitor Package *
*****************************

The new Gnome based monitoring tool is now packaged as apcupsd-gapcmon. This
requires Gtk2 >= 2.4. Enable this with --define "build_gapcmon 1"

*******************************
* net-snmp build switch added *
*******************************

To build the snmp driver, enable with --define "build_snmp 1". Released binary 
packages are built with this enabled.
