Enhanced BusyBox shell 1.20.2power4

Tiny utilities for small and embedded systems - enhanced package BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides the default shell used in Maemo. This package replaces the default BusyBox executable with the latest upstream version. It also includes Maemo-specific bug fixes, a lot more utilities and additional features (like Ctrl-R reverse history search, proper shell history handling and swapon with priority support). Also see http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=72801. This package won't overwrite any existing symlinks and binaries providing the same functionality (like GNU tar if installed/symlinked).
