Changelog

busybox (1:1.35.0-1ubuntu1) kinetic; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - [udeb] Enable chvt, killall, losetup, od, and stat.
    - test-bin.patch: Move test and friends to /bin.
    - static-sh-alias.patch: Add static-sh alias name for ash, and install
      /bin/static-sh symlink to busybox in busybox-static.
    - Add busybox-initramfs.
    - debian/config/pkg/deb
      debian/config/pkg/static:
      Enable chpasswd in standard and static builds (needed by LXC).
    - Move zz-busybox to busybox-initramfs to ensure we get links to all
      the tools we need, stop shipping it anywhere else.
    - Prefer busybox commands over klibc commands where there is duplication.
    - Add Ubuntu configuration for busybox binaries.
    - Enable the new klibc utility implementations, nuke and run-init
      in the initramfs package; and also enable reboot.  Doesn't yet make
      klibc-utils irrelevant - we still use ipconfig, fstype, and nfsmount
      - but it moves us much closer and should save a little bit of disk
      space.
    - debian/config/pkg/initramfs: Enable the date applet with the same
      options as the other variants for use in fixrtc and casper scripts.
    - debian/config/pkg/initramfs
      debian/tree/busybox/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/zz-busybox:
      Enable TLS in initramfs flavour of wget applet, requires openssl
    - Add dirname from coreutils to the initramfs
  * Dropped changes, included in Debian:
