the busybox ebuild should make application links if desired. Specifically if embedded systems are to be designed around this. Once can also do something like 'busybox -s init' or somesuch that solar told me... anyway... I was thinking an addtional use variable(yes I'm use variable crazy) called 'links' that would do the following if [ "`use links`" == "" ]; then for i in `cat busybox.links` do dosym /bin/busybox $i done fi
From the metadata base-system looks like its the maintainer of this package.
i'll add this but i'll also put in a sanity check to make sure that none of the links created exist in ${ROOT} already all we need is some guy hosing his system and then us hearing about it :P
env USE=make-busybox-symlinks emerge busybox
