Isn't it a bit annoying to no longer have clear/reset compiled as part
of Busybox?

Perhaps we should enable the clear/reset applets in Busybox if ncurses
is disabled, and disable the clear/reset applets in Busybox if ncurses
is enabled. This way, we keep the existing functionality, but we can
break the ncurses->busybox dependency.


Currently the buildroot default busybox config has the two tools which
would be missing if ncurses was disabled, enabled by default. So I think
that's ok, (not the cleanest though).



Thanks,

Thomas
