[Bug 253999] [NEW] nut with Tripplite UPS fills logs and console with "on battery" and "on line power" messages

[Jamie Strandboge]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nut

I have a Tripplite OmniSmart 1400 UPS configured with:
[tripplite1]
        driver = genericups
        upstype = 5
        port = /dev/ttyS0
        desc = "Tripplite UPS"

and my console is filled with:
Broadcast Message from nut at foo                                            
        (somewhere) at 11:07 ...                                               
                                                                               
UPS tripplite1 at localhost on battery                                        
                                                                               
                                                                               
Broadcast Message from nut at foo                                         
        (somewhere) at 11:07 ...                                               
                                                                               
UPS tripplite1 at localhost on line power


and my logs filled with:
Aug  1 11:16:41 foo upsmon[11350]: UPS tripplite1 at localhost on battery
Aug  1 11:16:46 foo upsmon[11350]: UPS tripplite1 at localhost on line power
Aug  1 11:16:51 foo upsmon[11350]: UPS tripplite1 at localhost on battery
Aug  1 11:16:56 foo upsmon[11350]: UPS tripplite1 at localhost on line power

The UPS appears to function properly otherwise, but this is particularly
annoying because of constant logging to the console.
