File a bug and it could be enabled for Fremantle. Currently the tar related options there seem to be: CONFIG_TAR=y CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_CREATE=y CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_GZIP=y # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_BZIP2 is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_LZMA is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_COMPRESS is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_AUTODETECT is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_FROM is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_OLDGNU_COMPATIBILITY is not set CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_OLDSUN_COMPATIBILITY=y CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_GNU_EXTENSIONS=y # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_LONG_OPTIONS is not set # CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_UNAME_GNAME is not set CONFIG_FEATURE_TAR_TOUCH=y We might not add new tools to Busybox, but I don't see why we wouldn't enable features in existing tools that make them more compatible with their desktop variants (if they really do them more compatible). If you notice any other similar features missing that could be enabled to Busybox, please list them in the same bug (or create another one) and put me on CC. - Eero _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
