Hello everyone,

Some days ago, busybox has been upgraded to 1.34.0. This version bring
an issue we suffer in sxmo_xinit.sh, sxmo_winit.sh and very probably a
lot of other scripts we got.

With this version, we cannot start dwm or sway. Users that still use xdm
will have a "blue screen" after the login page. Tinydm users will be
stucked on a sad tty page.

If you upgraded by error, you should be able to rollback your busybox
version with this command. Adapt to the version you had before
upgrading:

sudo apk add /var/cache/apk/busybox-1.33.1-r5 \
	/var/cache/apk/busybox-extras-1.33.1-r5 \
	/var/cache/apk/busybox-suid-1.33.1-r5

Here some link to follow the issue :

- http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2021-August/089128.html

See ya !
