Description Yuri Vasilevski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-03 06:31:07 UTC 
Hi,

Some how this night busybox (now recategorized to sys-apps/busybox) got into the
default-linux profile.

I'm sure this is not the desired behavior as busybox just duplicates a reduced
subset of the capabilities offered mostly by sys-apps/coreutils (and some others
like net-misc/wget) and it is targeted at embedded systems.

Yuri.

# emerge -uDpv world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] sys-apps/busybox-1.00-r4  -debug -floppyboot -make-symlinks
-netboot -savedconfig -static 1,108 kB 

$ grep busybox /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/packages
*sys-apps/busybox

Reproducible: Always

Hi viper, I added you to the CC list as you are the person that added
app-shells/busybox (the renamed to sys-apps/busybox) 11:30 hours ago acordig to CVS.

Yuri.
