Package: busybox-static
Version: 1:0.60.5-2.2
Severity: normal
If "dir" doesn't exist yet:
ay:~> busybox mkdir -p dir/.
mkdir: Cannot create directory `dir/.': File exists
"dir" is created as expected, but busybox returns with a non-zero
error code, and this makes some tools like "make" fail when having
a command like
mkdir -p dir/$(*D)
in a rule.

Hi,
I do not see the behaviour you experienced with recent busybox versions like
the one currently in sid, so I think it's safe to assume the issue has been
resolved. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
