There don't seem to be many new features with this release, and it also fixes a bug I was experiencing in ash.
I chose what new features to enable based on what Alpine Linux enabled.

Thanks Tom. Could I also have trusted access on the Termux wiki to add busybox ash to the shells page?

• If you're referring to https://wiki.termux.com/, that's actually frozen
  pending Add initial get started and packages pages for the site #18887.
  ^{(any week now @agnostic-apollo am I right?)}

• If you're talking about the GH wiki(https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/wiki) that's locked behind Org membership.
  ^{(I really wish GH wiki pages were just markdown files somewhere in the repo so people could make PRs for them)}

Yes, I did mean https://wiki.termux.com. I guess I'll wait, thanks for the info.

(any week now @agnostic-apollo am I right?)

Week? pfft! Years with the workload I have.

The pull for the site branch can be merged into master (after a final look) and pulls can then be sent to it by members/users as markdown, have said that before as well.

If you want to send to https://wiki.termux.com/, then post the text you want in mediawiki format (not markdown), and I will upload it there.

Thanks @agnostic-apollo.
Here is the text for https://wiki.termux.com, as another entry for the Shells page:

= Busybox Ash =

Homepage: https://busybox.net/<br>
Installation: <code>pkg install busybox</code>

Busybox provides a minimal set of Unix utilities in a single executable. One of these is ash, a POSIX-compliant shell derived from dash.<br>
Ash sources <code>/etc/profile</code> and <code>~/.profile</code> for login shells, and sources the file in <code>$ENV</code> for all interactive shells.

Thanks, have added at https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Shells#Busybox_Ash

I pressed enter in the summary field to add your credit, and the stupid site committed it directly instead.

I can't see it on the page, is it there yet?

The shell number 3.

Can't see it either.

Can you check again?

Yep now it's there.

Seems to be a bug in wiki, I could see it while logged in, but not when logged out, I just randomly checked pages like history etc and now its active, maybe certain time period was required...

• By the way, I just pushed a revision to update-alternatives fixes and improvements. #25113 to add alternative for vi editor pager and less as part of the busybox package.
  That PR is a full subsystem overhaul for the alternatives system I'd appreciate a quick review of the scripts/ changes if you have the time.
  Busybox upstream was not reachable earlier so I was only able to add it to the PR now.

Okay, will try today/tomorrow.

Everything is broken down into individual self contained commits, it will be a lot easier to review the changes commit by commit.

The only one that has major additions is the one introducing the new build step.
