The main concern with LSB is that we have something called task-basic,

at least one person has tried to use it and then been a little puzzled as
to why rpm has been pulled in when ipk packaging has been selected. Just
naming some of these tasks more appropriately would help avoid such
situations. In the specific case of task-basic there may be a case for
creating a similar but not LSB-focused task that pulls in real shell
utilities in preference to the light versions provided by busybox.

Ugh, sorry. I meant task-core-basic here - not to be confused with task-basic
in meta-oe [1].

Cheers,
Paul
