Package: busybox-udeb Version: 1.00-4 Severity: wishlist It would be useful to have uuencode available in busybox-udeb for the support of block device encryption in partman-crypto. In particular, I'd like to use uuencode to create loop-AES multi-key style encryption keys.
$ du -b busybox-udeb_1.00-4* 130536 busybox-udeb_1.00-4_i386.udeb 130574 busybox-udeb_1.00-4+uuencode.udeb Interestingly, the busybox binary doesn't seem to get any larger from including uuencode. I've verified that one binary supports uuencode and the other does not, but somehow I still don't trust this result: $ du -b */bin/busybox 226152 udeb/bin/busybox 226152 udeb+uuencode/bin/busybox cheers, Max
