Package: busybox Version: 1:1.30.1-7+b1 Severity: wishlist
Hi. Could you please enable CONFIG_BASE64? base64 is normally guaranteed to be avialble because it's part of coreutils. But it is not in e.g. the initramfs. While Debian’s busybox has in principle uuencode/uudecode as alternatives enabled, these have a number of disadvantages, mostly their unsafe in interace (see e.g. #995833). busybox' base64 seems to reuse the functions from it's uuencode/uudecode, so I guess the impact on additionally required space will be very little. Thanks, Chris
