Help needed in disabling busybox configuration for linux hardening requirement.

Hi,

Just a reminder, any suggestions to my earlier query. I am re sending my
query:


It throws me the following error:
==================================================
/projects/cc-ban-vwstg4/purush/TOOLCHAIN/stbgcc-4.5.4-2.9/bin/../lib/gcc/mipsel-linux-uclibc/4.5.4/../../../../mipsel-linux-uclibc/bin/ld:

==================================================

If I add the following configurations in "whitelist.busybox-small" then it
works fine

CONFIG_BRCTL=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_BRCTL_FANCY=y
CONFIG_FEATURE_BRCTL_SHOW=y


thanks,
