Thank you but I vaguely remember I used --follow=name for a reason. So a busybox specific fix would be preferred.
I can open an MR with a specific "busybox" fix, when I get time for this. Just asking for curiosity: Where does the definition "linux" got set?
Best regards, Thomas
"linux" is set by the preprocessor I think
Hi guys,
I ported/created package for ARM Aarch64 v8, and would like to use it on slim linux systems which only have busybox. (embedded devices)
The issue here is, that tail from busybox does not know the --follow=name argument. Indeed it uses -f/-F for that.
I fixed this issue for me (quick & dirty) by patching this:
I think a cleaner solution would be to add a #if-else case for busybox case here. But I wanted to share this patch with you anyway, maybe you want to implement something similar.
Greetings
