Package: busybox-udeb Severity: normal Tar creation support should be enabled in the udeb. A test build on amd64 shows this uses about 4k (should be smaller on i386): -rwxr-xr-x 1 joey joey 233K Jun 21 15:47 busybox* -rwxr-xr-x 1 joey joey 237K Jun 21 15:49 busybox.tar-c* Reason: live-installer needs to create a tar file. Currently it is chrooting to the live filesystem to run tar c there. Howerver, not all live filesystems will have support for tar c either, so it would be best if it could use d-i's tar. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- see shy jo
