<li><b>4 November 2007 -- BusyBox 1.8.0 (unstable)</b>
<p><a href=http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.8.0.tar.bz2>BusyBox 1.8.0</a>.
(<a href=http://busybox.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/branches/busybox_1_8_stable/>svn</a>,
<a href=http://busybox.net/downloads/fixes-1.8.0/>patches</a>,
<a href=http://busybox.net/fix.html>how to add a patch</a>)</p>
<p>Note: this is probably the very last release with lash. It will be dropped. Please migrate to hush.
<p>Applets which had many changes since 1.7.x:
<p>httpd:
<ul>
<li>does not clear environment, CGIs will see all environment variables which were set for httpd
<li>fix bug where we were trying to read more POSTDATA than content-length
<li>fix trivial bug (spotted by Alex Landau)
<li>optional support for partial downloads
<li>simplified CGI i/o loop (now it looks good to me)
<li>small auth and IPv6 fixes (Kim B. Heino &lt;Kim.Heino at bluegiga.com>)
<li>support for proxying connection to other http server (by Alex Landau &lt;landau_alex at yahoo.com>)
</ul>
<p>top:
<ul>
<li>TOPMEM feature - 's(how sizes)' command
<li>don't wait before final bailout (try top -b -n1)
<li>fix for command line wrapping
</ul>
<p>Build system improvements: libbusybox mode restored (it was lost in transition to new makefiles).
<p>Code and data size in comparison with 1.7.3:<pre>
Equivalent .config, i386 uclibc static builds:
text data bss dec hex filename
768123 1055 10768 779946 be6aa busybox-1.7.3/busybox
759693 974 9420 770087 bc027 busybox-1.8.0/busybox</pre>
<p>New applets:
<ul>
<li>microcom: new applet by Vladimir Dronnikov &lt;dronnikov at gmail.ru&gt;
<li>kbd_mode: new applet by Loic Grenie &lt;loic.grenie at gmail.com&gt;
<li>bzip2: port bzip2 1.0.4 to busybox, 9 kb of code
<li>pgrep, pkill: new applets by Loic Grenie &lt;loic.grenie at gmail.com&gt;
<li>setsebool: new applet (Yuichi Nakamura &lt;ynakam at hitachisoft.jp&gt;)
</ul>
<p>Other changes since previous release (abridged):
<ul>
<li>cp: -r and -R imply -d (coreutils compat)
<li>cp: detect and prevent infinite recursion
<li>cp: make it a bit closer to POSIX, but still refuse to open and overwrite symbolic link
<li>hdparm: reduce possibility of numeric overflow in -T
<li>hdparm: simplify timing measurement
<li>wget: -O FILE is allowed to overwrite existing file (compat)
<li>wget: allow dots in header field names.
<li>telnetd: add -K option to close sessions as soon as child exits.
<li>telnetd: don't SIGKILL child when closing the session, kernel will send SIGHUP for us
<li>ed: large cleanup, add line editing
<li>hush: feeble attempt at making it more NOMMU-friendly
<li>hush: fix glob()
<li>hush: stop doing manual accounting of open fd's, kernel can do it for us
<li>adduser: implement -S and fix uid selection
<li>ash: fix prompt expansion (Natanael Copa &lt;natanael.copa at gmail.com&gt;)
<li>ash: revert "cat | jobs" fix, it causes more problems than good
<li>find: fix -xdev behavior in the presence of two or more nested mount points
<li>grep: fix grep -F -e str1 -e str2 (was matching str2 only)
<li>grep: optimization: stop on first -e match
<li>gunzip: support concatenated gz files
<li>inetd: fix bug 1562 "inetd does not set argv[0] properly" (fix by Ilya Panfilov)
<li>install: 'support' (by ignoring) -v and -b
<li>install: fix bug in "install -c file dir" (tried to copy dir into dir too)

<li>isrv: use monotonic_sec
<li>less: make 'f' key page forward
<li>libiproute: add missing break statements

<li>passwd: SELinux support by KaiGai Kohei &lt;kaigai at ak.jp.nec.com&gt;
<li>ping: make -I ethN work too (-I addr already worked)
<li>ps: fix RSS parsing (rss field in /proc/PID/stat is in pages, not bytes)
<li>read_line_input: fix it to not do any fancy editing if echoing is disabled
<li>run_parts: make it sort executables by name (required by API)
<li>runsv: do not use clock_gettime if !MONOTONIC_CLOCK
<li>runsvdir: fix "linear wait time" bug
