Package: busybox-udeb
Version: 1.00-4
Severity: wishlist
It would be useful to have uuencode available in busybox-udeb for the
support of block device encryption in partman-crypto. In particular, I'd
like to use uuencode to create loop-AES multi-key style encryption keys.
$ du -b busybox-udeb_1.00-4*
130536 busybox-udeb_1.00-4_i386.udeb
130574 busybox-udeb_1.00-4+uuencode.udeb
Interestingly, the busybox binary doesn't seem to get any larger from
including uuencode. I've verified that one binary supports uuencode and
the other does not, but somehow I still don't trust this result:
$ du -b */bin/busybox
226152 udeb/bin/busybox
226152 udeb+uuencode/bin/busybox
cheers,
Max

Hi busybox maintainers,
CONFIG_UUENCODE=y is no longer needed for partman-crypto, so I'm
closing this wishlist bug of mine.
cheers,
Max
