busybox 1:1.22.0-15ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

busybox (1:1.22.0-15ubuntu1) wily; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable (LP: #1486231).  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.
    - Refresh busybox-initramfs config to keep it in sync with the featureset
      of the other builds.  (No changes upstream.)
    - 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.

busybox (1:1.22.0-15) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Michael Gilbert ]
  * Fix CVE-2014-9645: modprobe accepts paths as modules (closes: #776186).

busybox (1:1.22.0-14) unstable; urgency=low

  * one more attempt to fix the glibc build-depend for #769190, now
    using versioned build-dependency on libc-dev-bin which is named
    this way on all architectures (unlike libc6|libc6.1|libc0.1|libc0.3)

busybox (1:1.22.0-13) unstable; urgency=medium

  * really fix #769190 the hard way, by build-conflicting with all
    arch-specific names of libc with version <2.19-12 (Closes: #769190)
  * check if glibc can produce working statically linked binaries
    by performing a getpwnam("root") call before building (#754813)

busybox (1:1.22.0-12) unstable; urgency=medium

  * fix the previous changelog entry (wrong bug# was "fixed" and typos)
  * ensure we build against non-broken glibc (>=2.19-12) (Closes: #769190)

busybox (1:1.22.0-11) unstable; urgency=medium

  * fix the built-using generation in the previous upload -- did not
    work correctly for != 1 dependency and #588505 in dpkg

busybox (1:1.22.0-10) unstable; urgency=high

  * lzop-add-overflow-check-CVE-2014-4607.patch (Closes: #768945)
  * add Built-Using control field for -static, deriving it from
    regular build (this will be glibc) (Closes: #768876)
  * install only arch/indep deb as requested by binary-arch or binary-indep
    target.  This fixes a long-standing lintian error, when package build
    always produces busybox-syslogd package which is arch:all and should not
    be built on a buildd.

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-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-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.
