busybox 1:1.35.0-4ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu
Changelog
busybox (1:1.35.0-4ubuntu1) lunar; 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

Binary packages built by this source
- busybox: Tiny utilities for small and embedded systems
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.
.
This package installs the BusyBox binary but does not install
symlinks for any of the supported utilities. Some of the utilities
can be used in the system by installing the busybox-syslogd,
busybox-udhcpc or busybox-udhcpd packages.
- busybox-dbgsym: debug symbols for busybox
- 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-initramfs-dbgsym: debug symbols for busybox-initramfs
- busybox-static: Standalone rescue shell with tons of builtin utilities

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.
- busybox-static-dbgsym: debug symbols for busybox-static
- busybox-syslogd: Provides syslogd and klogd using busybox
The system log daemon is responsible for providing logging of
messages received from programs and facilities on the local host as
well as from remote hosts.
.
The kernel log daemon listens to kernel message sources and is
responsible for prioritizing and processing operating system
messages.
.
The busybox implementation of the syslogd is particular useful on
embedded, diskless (netboot) or flash disk based systems because it
can use a fixed size ring buffer for logging instead of saving logs
to the disk or sending it to remote logging servers. The ring buffer
can be read using the (also busybox based) command logread.
.
This package provides the glue to the busybox syslogd and klogd to be
used in the system by providing the appropriate symbolic links and
scripts.
- udhcpc: Provides the busybox DHCP client implementation
Busybox contains a very small yet fully functional RFC compliant DHCP
client formerly known as udhcpc.
.
This package contains the glue to use the busybox udhcpc as DHCP
client in the system by providing the appropriate symbolic links and
scripts.
- udhcpd: Provides the busybox DHCP server implementation
Busybox contains a very small yet fully function RFC compliant DHCP
server udhcpd.
.
This package contains the glue to use the busybox udhcpd as DHCP
server in the system by providing the appropriate symbolic links and
scripts.
