--- Begin Message ---Package: busybox Version: 1:1.22.0-15 Severity: important Tags: newcomer Dear Maintainer, When installing busybox's symlink readlink gets installed (without checking) into /usr/bin/readlink. Some packages require readlink support via debconf (for example the flash-kernel package) but busybox's readlink does not offer the -m option. Coreutils however, a requirement for debian and its tools (debconf), also supplies readlink. With both coreutils and busybox installed however, the busybox variant gets used before the coreutils variant causing package failures. A quick fix/workaround: if [ -f /bin/readlink ]; then unlink /usr/bin/readlink fi This on armhf jessie variant using busybox 1:1.22.0-9+deb8u1. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, armhf Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-rc1+ (SMP w/4 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages busybox depends on: ii libc6 2.19-22 busybox recommends no packages. busybox suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
