Hi Russell. Unfortunately the answer is that they are using a whole brace of symlinks to busybox.
Added is the fact that Google/Apple/Microsoft/Manufacturers don't actually want people to be able to play "under the hood". They want you to do things their way, with their latest bright and shiny abomination. I'm sure these companies only employ Golgafrincham B-Ark ex staff from the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.

The minimum Android device nowadays seems to have 8G of storage and 512M of RAM. I don't think there's any reason why the utilities on Android should be less capable than the ones we were using 18 years ago when PCs had 8G hard drives and less than 512M of RAM. If modern coreutils is considered to be too big then the Android developers could get the source to one of the Debian releases from soon after the ELF transition. Source code from the days when a server had 16M of RAM and a 500M hard drive should compile on modern Linux systems and be less resource intensive than modern versions of the same utilities. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
