Hi Yousong,

> From: Yousong Zhou <yszhou4tech at gmail.com>
> 
> Almost all busybox applets are alternatives to some other existing
> "full" utilities.  To lift the maintenance burden of enumerating CONFIG
> symbols, symlink path of each applet, we special case busybox here as a
> known alternatives provider.
> 
> All file pathes provided by busybox will serve as fallback alternatives
> with -inf priority.  Packages intending to switch to using alternatives
> mechanism will also not need to depend on the same kind of change be
> applied on busybox in base system
>
