That means, can you put busybox-shell to auto-conflict sash and link /bin/sash to /bin/busybox-sh or what the binary is called? Oh, and unless you have another editor as binary built into your shell, don't remove ed. A "trusted" editor is good. Sash is seldom used for "My system is haxxored" however its often used for "I fucked up glibc" and an editor is a handy thing, even if its as obscure as "ed" Otherwise, I'd suggest this is a "default change" for 2005.next rather than a replacement "right now". //Spider --=20 begin .signature Tortured users / Laughing in pain See Microsoft KB Article Q265230 for more information. end --=-lAl83y4brTUeErgD3yYj Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBCaQQVZS9CZTi033kRAkTSAJ9M73oUlHRdxNVIsCCPvyUHfveihwCffnVq 2UlpgCt4QQPbjIZj64CD7TU= =b3LR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-lAl83y4brTUeErgD3yYj-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
