Yes, there are a few recipes that do this (not dozens). There are far more recipes that do not. The given reasoning is essentially 'I can't be bothered to configure busybox correctly and test my script with it in a systematic way', which does rub me the wrong way. Usually executables are split to avoid licensing issues in a product, avoid installing both client and server, or to satisfy space constraints if there's no smaller alternative - and in this case there is. A change to the default busybox configuration in oe-core is a better way out perhaps? Enable the needed options, and send a patch. Alex
