busybox 1:1.35.0-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

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:
    - debian/patches/CVE-2021-28831.patch: fix DoS if gzip is corrupt in
      archival/libarchive/decompress_gunzip.c.
    - debian/patches/CVE-2021-42374.patch: fix a case where we could read
      before beginning of buffer in archival/libarchive/decompress_unlzma.c,
      testsuite/unlzma.tests.
    - debian/patches/CVE-2021-423xx-awk.patch: backport awk.c from
      busybox 1.34.1.
    - debian/patches/58d998d2f927c20f2ba728611df587ac8ec8bda9.patch
    - debian/patches/adjust-testsuite-for-fixed-bunzip2.patch
    - debian/patches/45fa3f18adf57ef9d743038743d9c90573aeeb91.patch
    - debian/patches/CVE-2018-1000500-2.patch

busybox-initramfs: Standalone shell setup for initramfs

 BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
 small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for the most common
 utilities you would usually find on your desktop system (i.e., ls, cp, mv,
 mount, tar, etc.). The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than
 their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included
 provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU
 counterparts.
 .
 busybox-initramfs provides a simple stand alone shell that provides
 only the basic utilities needed for the initramfs.

busybox-static: Standalone rescue shell with tons of builtin utilities

 BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single
 small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for the most common
 utilities you would usually find on your desktop system (i.e., ls, cp, mv,

 provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU
 counterparts.
 .
 busybox-static provides you with a statically linked simple stand alone shell
 that provides all the utilities available in BusyBox. This package is
 intended to be used as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your
 system. Invoke "busybox sh" and you have a standalone shell ready to save
 your system from certain destruction. Invoke "busybox", and it will list the
 available builtin commands.
