------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-04-20 11:40 ------- Yes, it's certainly true that busybox's ash has many fewer builtins than bash does. The big one is "test" which is a builtin in bash (and required to be a builtin by the POSIX sh spec) but an external command in ash. Most of bash's other builtins are GNU extensions and not strictly required. The CELF folks did have a patch to add some of these as ash builtins, which would improve performance as well as help with this issue. Might be worth making another attempt at integrating that in OE. dc is traditionally installed in /usr/bin and never provided as a shell builtin. I think the early startup scripts ought to refrain from use of that command: it's fairly hard to imagine why it would be required. Most of the other stuff mentioned here (awk, cut, sort, basename) is indeed installed in /bin under Fedora, though Debian puts most of it in /usr/bin. And, given that these "binaries" are for the most part just symlinks, there doesn't seem any harm in moving them to /bin. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.openembedded.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. _______________________________________________ Oe mailing list [email protected] https://www.handhelds.org/mailman/listinfo/oe
