+ - 23 March, 2007 -- BusyBox 1.5.0 (unstable)
+
BusyBox 1.5.0.
+
+ Since this is a x.x.0 release, it probably does not deserve "stable"
+ label. Please help making 1.5.1 stable by testing 1.5.0.
+ Notable changes since previous release:
+
+ - find: added support for -user, -not, fixed -mtime, -mmin, -perm
+
- [de]archivers: merge common logic into one module
+
- ping[6]: unified code for both
+
- less: regex search improved
+
- ash: more readable code, testsuite added
+
- sed: several very obscure bugs fixed
+
- chown: -H, -L, -P support (required by POSIX)
+
- tar: handle (broken) checksums a-la Sun; tar restores mode again
+
- grep: implement -w, "implement" -a and -I by ignoring them
+
- cp: more sane behavior when overwriting existing files
+
- init: stop doing silly things with the console (-400 bytes)
+
- httpd: make httpd usable for NOMMU CPUs; fix POSTDATA handling bugs
+
- httpd: run interpreter for configured file extensions in any dir,
+ not only in /cgi-bin/
+
- chrt: new applet
+
- SELinux: SELinux-related code and -Z option added to several applets,
+ new SELinux-specific applets: chcon, runcon.
+
- Build system: produces link map, uses -Wwrite-strings to catch
+ improper usage of string constants.
+
- Data and bss section usage audited and reduced - should help NOMMU
+ targets.
+
- Applets with bug fixes: gunzip, vi, syslogd, dpkg, ls, adjtimex, resize,
+ sv, printf, diff, awk, sort, dpkg, diff, tftp
+
- Applets with usability improvements: swapon, more, ifup/ifdown, hwclock,
+ udhcpd, start_stop_daemon, cmp
+
- Applets with code cleaned up: telnet, fdisk, fsck_minix, mkfs_minix,
+ syslogd, swapon, runsv, svlogd, klogd
+
