I have installed Rocky Linux 10.1 (Red Quartz) and I am now trying to set up NUT in standalone mode with a generic USB controlled UPS. I installed it using: ```auto root@shi:~# dnf install nut Last metadata expiration check: 1:07:53 ago on Fri 02 Jan 2026 08:01:40.

USB search disabled. Cannot load SNMP library (libnetsnmp.so) : file not found. SNMP search disabled. Cannot load XML library (libneon.so) : file not found. XML search disabled. Cannot load AVAHI library (libavahi-client.so) : file not found. AVAHI search disabled. Cannot load IPMI library (libfreeipmi.so) : file not found. IPMI search disabled. Cannot load NUT library (libupsclient.so) : file not found. NUT search disabled. false ``` I’m going to need that USB one so I started there: ```auto root@shi:~# rpm -qa | grep -i libusb libusb1-1.0.28-1.el10.x86_64 libusb-compat-0.1-0.1.8-9.el10_0.x86_64 root@shi:~# dnf provides libusb-1.0.so Last metadata expiration check: 0:23:16 ago on Fri 02 Jan 2026 09:31:59. Error: No matches found. If searching for a file, try specifying the full path or using a wildcard prefix ("*/") at the beginning. ``` Tried other things, such as installing libusbx and nut-devel but they didn’t help with the missing libusb-1.0.so. I’m guessing that it is an issue with the package manager not knowing the full dependencies of Nut? Not sure of the best path forward so would welcome suggestions. ---

Looks like `libusb1-devel` might be what you need. `dnf provides "*/libusb-1.0.so"` ---

> [@ukoda](#): > > I’m guessing that it is an issue with the package manager not knowing the full dependencies of Nut? Not necessarily. In almost all circumstances, especially from packages from EPEL (thus the fedora project), when a package is built, it will determine relevant dependencies automatically and the maintainer of the package can optionally add in additional dependencies. ```auto [root@idp ~]# dnf whatprovides \*/libusb-1.0.so* Last metadata expiration check: 0:01:46 ago on Thu 01 Jan 2026 02:23:17 PM MST. libusb1-1.0.28-1.el10.x86_64 : Library for accessing USB devices Repo : @System Matched from: Filename : /usr/lib64/libusb-1.0.so.0 Filename : /usr/lib64/libusb-1.0.so.0.5.0 libusb1-1.0.28-1.el10.x86_64 : Library for accessing USB devices Repo : baseos Matched from: Filename : /usr/lib64/libusb-1.0.so.0 Filename : /usr/lib64/libusb-1.0.so.0.5.0 ``` Using dnf you can try to find the relevant library package. As shown here, it’s libusb1. (You do not need to use the devel package unless absolutely required). ---

Thanks, I was over estimating what “dnf provides” could do. Was able to get it working now. ---

For others who run into the issue here is the key steps. Thanks to @linde and @label for their fast and useful replies. First installed these: ```auto dnf install libusb1-devel dnf install net-snmp-devel dnf install neon-devel dnf install avahi-devel ``` libfreeipmi.so was a bit more work. I already had it with a longer file name, it comes from freeipmi-1.6.14-4.el10.x86\_64. So I created a soft link with the needed file name: ```auto cd /usr/lib64/ ln -s libfreeipmi.so.17.2.12 libfreeipmi.so ``` With that it appears to run ok. ---
