• Bug#1110189: Missing hard dependency on busybox-static

    From Lee Garrett@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 31 16:00:02 2025
    Package: virtme-ng
    Version: 1.35-1
    Severity: normal

    Hi,

    it seems like virtme-ng should be depending on busybox-static:

    $ virtme-ng --run /boot/vmlinuz-6.12.38+deb13-amd64
    virtme-run: a statically linked busybox could not be found, please install busybox-static

    It might work some other way without it, but I haven't looked to hard.

    Greets,
    Lee
