any plans for a fileutils package
  • jf_jf_ February 2010
    yes, I know that busybox "sort" of provides it already - but for me, i'm specifically looking for a specific option to 'ls' that i want to use, that busybox does not provide already. Namely '--time-style'. I've searched packages already - no fileutils. Any plan to provide that? (or a package just for 'ls')

    I would love an 'anti-busybox' (meta)package that restores these utilities to their former glory. I appreciate BB is good at providing most functionality but the compatibility just isn't there.

    Hello,

    try coreutils-file-sort :

    http://pkgs.slitaz.org/search.cgi?package=coreutils

    thanks. Not that i was looking for the sort *binary* - but the *ls* binary... But that reply did certainly help. I went looking for 'ls' in packages, and surprise, surprise, it is provided for by 'coreutils-directory'... Thanks.

    I did encounter a bug, though, with the install of this package. I would file a bug report - except that there doesnt seem to be a place to do so? (I'm browsing around - cant find it).

    Problem is this: installing coreutils-directory MUST require package 'acl'. If not, you get the following error message:

    ls: error while loading shared libraries: libacl.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
