What is the recommended method for getting UPS monitoring and autoshutdown in CentOS 8? EPEL has nut, but I get errors on missing dependencies when trying to install it. I can add details if needed or helpful. I have looked for apcupsd, but have not found a package for CentOS 8. Suggestions?

Cheers, Ian

    Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 8 – x86_64

    – conflicting requests
    – nothing provides pygtk2-libglade needed by nut-client-2.7.4-24.el8.x86_64
    (try to add ‘–skip-broken’ to skip uninstallable packages or
    ‘–nobest’ to use not only best candidate packages)

    @!$$%$#@# will go see what needs to be done to fix.
