watchdog is a flexible watchdog daemon that improves on the already available Busybox watchdog daemon by providing more advanced features, like defining custom system status checks and executing repair scripts to react upon invariants that don't hold. Due to "watchdog" being also provided by Busybox, we need to make that package/watchdog installs the watchdog binary in the same place as Busybox (i.e in /sbin), and need to add a dependency of Busybox on this new watchdog package.

Watchdog is a daemon that periodically pets a watchdog device
|
|
if the configured system status checks pass. If they do not,
|
|
the daemon may execute repair commands, shutdown the system or
|
|
reboot it.
