The files "installed-package-names.txt" are not available in my setup (IIRC one has to enable that explicitly).

You're right. Ages ago - in April 2015 - I added that to my busybox configuration, since I need a
nice for some scripts on target. And since you figured out, coreutils is (likely with reason) not
available in general for some images, others might have that, too.

So I created a small patch for corutils ;)

Thanks for figuring that out.

Cheers,
Jens
