BusyBox 1.19 has been released a little over a week ago. It contains about 9 months of much appreciated hard work by the BusyBox developers & other contributors. It sure makes a great update

Busybox-power has been updated accordingly: 1.19.0power1 just got pushed to Maemo's extras-devel. I'm letting it settle there for a few days before promoting it to extras-testing because of the size of the update.

Head over to http://busybox.net/ if you want to find out more about the changes that went into BusyBox 1.19. Changes specific to busybox-power include fixing the issue discovered by Mentalist Traceur in the posts above, busybox being split in busybox and busybox_root (see bug #700), and the activation of a few new applets.
I'd like to point out one particularly interesting new feature of BusyBox 1.19: Reverse history search. Whilst already common in other shells, searching your shell history by pressing Ctrl-R is now available in BusyBox' shells too.

Enjoy the new release!
