Package: busybox-static
Version: 1:0.60.1-2
Severity: wishlist

If you want to have busybox as your root login shell (its shell has been
far better than sash for some time now), you can simply make a symlink to
it from either sh or ash.  Clearly busybox would make a dumb choice for
the former, and I have the latter installed already.

Please add another shell alias to busybox, maybe "busysh" or something?
That'd make it play nicely with ash and still make it able to be root's
login shell.

Several Debian revisions back (in lenny?  etch?), ash package
has been replaced with dash.  There's still a compatibility/
transitional package "ash", wich provides /bin/ash symlink
to dash, but it's obviously optional.  So I think this bugreport
is not relevant anymore, so closing it finally, after about 10
years since original bugreport.

Thanks!
