** Description changed: [Availability] ============== src:busybox was introduced in Dapper (2006) and has been in main since then. src:busybox & bin:busybox-static are in main, to be more precise. And this request is to promote bin:busybox from src:busybox in main, too. It only depends on the libc6 package, which is in main already. The package builds on all the architectures; is Arch:any. [Rationale] =========== This package is to be included in IBM cloud images, going back to Bionic. As cloud images are to ship only packages from main this request is to see that happen. + + [Security] + ========== + The binary doesn't install services / daemons (/etc/init.d/*, /etc/init/*, /lib/systemd/system/*). Just ships the "busybox" binary, its docs, and a man page. [Dependencies] ============== libc6, which is in main already. [Maintenance] ============= Server team. [Background information] ======================== Tiny utilities for small and embedded systems. --- Upstream: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/ Launchpad page: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/busybox Ubuntu bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/busybox Debian Package Tracker: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/busybox Debian bugs: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no&src=busybox
