#18391: Please include either uuencode or base64 in the base system
-----------------------------+------------------------
Reporter: jch@… | Owner: developers
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: low | Milestone:
Component: base system | Version: Trunk
Keywords: base64 uuencode |
-----------------------------+------------------------
The Emacs Tramp package allows remote editing of files on a remote system
over ssh. It's extremely convenient for applying config changes to
OpenWRT routers without logging in.
Tramp requires just an ssh server and either the "uuencode" or the
"base64" utility. Unfortunately, neither of those is in a base OpenWRT
install. (Base64 is in coreutils-base64, uuencode is not available.)
Please enable uuencode in busybox, or, even better, implement base64 in
busybox.
