14 December, 2006 -- BusyBox 1.3.0 (stable)
Changes since previous release:
find: taking many more of standard options
ps: POSIX-compliant -o implemented
cp: added -s, -l
grep: added -r, fixed -h
watch: make it exec child like standard one does (was totally incompatible)
tar: fix limitations which were preventing bbox tar usage on a big directories:
long names and linknames, pax headers (Linux kernel tarballs have that). Fixed
a number of obscure bugs. Raised max file limit (now 64Gb). Security fixes
(/../ attacks).
httpd: added -i (inetd), -f (foreground), support for directory indexer CGI
(example is included), bugfixes.
telnetd: fixed/improved IPv6 support, inetd+standalone support, other fixes.
Useful IPv6 stuff factored out into libbb.
runit/*: new applets adapted from http://smarden.sunsite.dk/runit/ (these are
my personal favorite small-and-beautiful toys)
minor bugfixes to: login, dd, mount, umount, chmod, chown, ln, udhcp, fdisk,
ifconfig, sort, tee, mkswap, wget, insmod.
