The base-files version is horribly outdated too.

now the PATH for root user defined in a problematic way
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:
from eglibc:
/* Two adjacent colons, or a colon at the beginning or the end
of `PATH' means to search the current directory. */
that means current directory is always searched as the last path,
which could generate undesired behavior.
One example is found in LTP cron_deny01 test, which always complains
"sh: cron_deny01 not found"
cron_deny01 is a shell script which setups the initial test preparation
and then invokes itself for real test under a different user:
su $TEST_USER1 -c "$0"
'su' doesn't inherit PATH into the sub-shell, and thus $0 has to
be an absolute path to have right script found.
ltp appends the path of cron_deny01 to $PATH before running the test:
export PATH="${PATH}:${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin"
In ideal way "${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin/cron_deny01" is found and becomes
$0, which works well.
However due to the ending colon in original PATH:
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin::${LTPROOT}/testcases/bin
$0 becomes 'cron_deny01' w/o leading path which makes sub-shell under 'su'
failed to locate cron_deny01.
remove ending colon then fixes this problem.

[BUGID #281]
Evaluate and update each package in recipes-core to ensure they have a
consistent summary and description.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things
and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several
logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
