“Ok, this took a lot longer then anyone expected but BusyBox
0.50 is now released and a tarball is now sitting on the ftp site
waiting for folks to grab it while its hot. This is the
announcement I just posted to the web site:”
“This release adds several new applets including ifconfig,
route, pivot_root, stty, and tftp, and also fixes tons of bugs. Tab
completion in the shell is now working very well, and the shell’s
environment variable expansion was fixed. Tons of other things were
fixed or made smaller. For a fairly complete overview, see the
changelog.”
