+ - 20 January, 2007 -- BusyBox 1.4.0 (stable)
+
BusyBox 1.4.0.
+
+ Since this is a x.x.0 release, it probably is a bit less "stable"
+ than usual.
+ Changes since previous release:
+
+ - e2fsprogs are mostly removed from busybox. Some smaller parts remain,
+ the rest of it sits disabled in e2fsprogs/old_e2fsprogs/*, because
+ it's too bloated. Really. I'm afraid it's about the only way we can
+ ever get e2fsprogs cleaned up.
+
- less: many improvements. Now can display binary files
+ (although I expect it to have trouble with displays where 8bit chars
+ don't have 1-to-1 char/glyph relationship). Regexp search is not buggy
+ anymore. Less does not read entire input up-front. Reads input
+ as it appears (yay!). Works rather nice as man pager. I recommend it
+ for general use now.
+
- IPv6: generic support is in place, many networking applets are
+ upgraded to be IPv6 capable. Probably some work remains, but it is
+ already much better than what we had previously.
+
- arp: new applet (thanks to Eric Spakman).
+
- fakeidentd: non-forking standalone server part was taking ~90%
+ of the applet. Factored it out (in fact, rewrote it).
+
- syslogd: mostly rewritten.
+
- decompress_unzip, gzip: sanitized a bit.
+
- sed: better hadling of NULs
+
- httpd: stop adding our own "Content-type:" to CGI output
+
- chown: user.grp works again.
+
- minor bugfixes to: passwd, date, tftp, start_stop_daemon, tar,
+ ps, ifupdown, time, su, stty, awk, ping[6], sort,...
+
+
+
+
+ 20 January, 2007 -- BusyBox 1.3.2 (stable)
+ BusyBox 1.3.1.
