I considered that, but taking that noone needed crc32 for anything so far I don't think we need to take competition with a random perl module. And it's just increasing busybox by 4.1 KB for no gain :)
Looks like the real problem is that busybox's chksum tool calculcated crc32 and now coreutils 9.0 (rq 923327) introduced chksum which does not calculcate crc32.
So all in all: I still think we don't need that tool in our default config
The right way is to add
Conflicts: /usr/bin/crc32
tobusybox-misc
fromdevel:kubic/busybox-links
