Currently, ltsp package has this in its Depends: line:

 Depends: busybox | busybox-static | busybox-initramfs, ...

I don't know where busybox-initramfs alternative come from, - none
of busybox packages provides it.  But busybox-static is definitely
not needed here, since it already has Provides: busybox, and will
satisfy first alternative.  If you're using [/usr]/bin/busybox
binary, you should depend on busybox package.

However, we're currently making changes to busybox-static package
(see #1147074), which will make it incompatible with current
expectations of ltsp.

Please drop busybox-static and busybos-initramfs alternatives from
the Depends line, keeping only busybox there, to allow us to proceed.

Thanks,
