[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/7] package/busybox: add /bin/ash to /etc/shells

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Romain, All,

On 2018-01-14 22:03 +0100, Romain Naour spake thusly:
> When ash (busybox) is selected, /bin/ash is not added to /etc/shells
> (see man shells). So, login tools like dropbear reject the ssh
> connexions for users using ash as shell in /etc/passwd.
> 
> buildroot authpriv.warn dropbear[853]: User 'kubu' has invalid shell, rejected
> 
> ash is disabled for MMUless systems, so don't add /bin/ash in
> /etc/shells in this case.

What if the user uses a custom config file where ash is not enabled?
What about the other shells busybox may install?

    define BUSYBOX_INSTALL_ADD_TO_SHELLS
        if grep -qsE '^CONFIG_ASH=y$$' $(@D)/.config; then
            grep -qsE '^/bin/ash' $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells \
            || echo "/bin/ash" >> $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells; \
        fi
        if grep -qsE '^CONFIG_HUSH=y$$' $(@D)/.config; then
            grep -qsE '^/bin/hush' $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells \
            || echo "/bin/hush" >> $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells; \
        fi
        if grep -qsE '^CONFIG_MSH=y$$' $(@D)/.config; then
            grep -qsE '^/bin/msh' $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells \
            || echo "/bin/msh" >> $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/shells; \
        fi
    endef

(msh is just an alias for hush, but it can be a shell nonethless...)

Yann E. MORIN.
