Hello,

I'm trying to add specific Linux commands to BusyBox 1.24.2 using Ubuntu 16.04. 
I've already used the guide 
https://git.busybox.net/busybox/tree/docs/new-applet-HOWTO.txt?h=1_24_stable 
and added a test command (mu), which works perfectly.

The problem arises when I try to add other commands to BusyBox, in this case, 
the "aureport" command. I've downloaded its source code, followed the 
instructions in the above-mentioned guide, however, during compilation, I keep 
getting errors telling me that a certain header file included within the source 
code of the command does not exist.

I keep adding these headers manually, only to continually receive errors saying 
that other included header files in headers that I just added do not exist. 
This process goes on and on, as I add more headers and they keep requiring even 
more to function themselves.

I understand that this is the way things work, nevertheless, I would like to 
know how I could add a command to BusyBox without this problem. How is it 
possible to obtain the source code of a command together with ALL the required 
headers? If it isn't, is there any way to add the source code without requiring 
these headers?

Overall, how would you add ordinary commands like "aureport" to BusyBox?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your time and consideration!
