fully right, thanks for investigation and patch.
For the sake of completion, lib/libupsclient-config.in (a replacement when
pkg-config is not present) also need to be fixed.

I've just applied it upstream (in NUT, commit r2960) while waiting for a new
Debian upload (I may lag a bit more, considering my current workload...):
http://trac.networkupstools.org/projects/nut/changeset/2960

Note that the above link may not yet be active by the reception of this
mail.

cheers,
