  I also don't really like it.  For instance, if you rebuild busybox, this
will not trigger a reinstall of less so it will again be the busybox version
that prevails...

  However, I don't see a better solution than this one.  For sure,
selecting less and getting busybox is worse than this.


  One alternative could be to automatically deselect less from busybox
when the full-blown less is selected.  But also that is a bit complex
I think.
