Yes, and then the user is responsible for creating a configuration for that. The current tree will modify the configuration of an existing .config file without warning the user, which is even more broken. > > To me it doesn't make sense to keep earlier versions than the latest > stable release of a given major version (E.G. 1.9.2 instead of 1.9.1) What you are saying here is that you do not want to allow people to decide for themselves when they should upgrade the busybox version. I think a lot of project managers would have an issue with this. > - Otherwise it'll get too hard to handle.
