Here's a very start of my attempts with busybox, in order to verify everything is set up correctly, to introduce myself, and to establish some sort of workflow. I installed a git repository on our DMZ machine (dunno if that's what meant as "git branch" -- since I'm - still - not a DD, I don't have access to main git.debian.org repositories), and prepared first small batch of changes (below). The repository is available as git://git.corpit.ru/debian-busybox.git , and all the changes are currently in "master" branch (will change if needed).
I'm sending changes as patches and making them available in a git tree. As mentioned, first batch is trivial: Michael Tokarev (3): [buildsys] don't copy .dotfiles from main source to the build directories [buildsys] don't copy but link source files into build directories [buildsys] remove trailing whitespaces from debian/rules debian/rules | 8 ++++---- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) Now, I've a quite large plan to deal with current situation in busybox. For the next step, I'll prepare an annotated list of config differences between static and deb builds with suggestions of how to resolve each difference - first for stuff present in static but not present in deb, next for the reverse. This is instead of actually making config changes directly, because each change may be discussed and accepted/rejected separately, and each change is just a one-liner - easier to review as a single list than a set of suggested differences. Once the differences will be agreed upon, it will be possible to commit them and work further. After each such "batched change", the state of package will not be ideal (for example, some unnecessary applets may be left enabled), but I think it's easier to bring the configurations as closer together as posible first, and decide what to trim (if anything at all) later.
