Major update ahead!
BusyBox 1.21.0 was released last Monday. It incorporates almost a year's worth of upstream development by various developers (see the release announcement at
http://busybox.net/
). Furthermore, a new applet has been included: sha3sum.
Binary Debian archives are available from busybox-power's garage page. They will be pushed to Maemo's repositories as soon as the repositories get back online. Direct download links for busybox-power1.21.0power1:
Diablo (N8xx)
Fremantle (N900)
Fremantle - thumb package (N900)
Please note that the installation directory of several (mostly obscure) applets has been changed. If you call any of these by their FQN, you should probably update your script. See
this commit
for a list of moved applets.
Also, do note that major releases have a bigger chance to break stuff. However, no hotfixes have been released yet (i.e. no regressions are known at this moment) and I personally haven't experienced any trouble running this latest release on my device.
Do let me know whenever you find a bug though
.
Enjoy!
