Ok,
Then you have to recompile apcupsd to use the generic USB driver (NOT the
bsd.c). Maybe you can figure this out?
/usr/ports/sysutils/apcupsd/work/apcupsd-3.14.4/src/drivers/usb/generic
Makefile generic-usb.c hidutils.c hidutils.h libusb.h.in
After that libusb gets installed you can use libmap.conf to make apcupsd use
libusb20 instead of libusb from ports.
--HPS
