Thomas Petazzoni 1dbd7b9910 package: move busybox show others dependency to per-package
Having the BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_SHOW_OTHERS dependencies in
package/Config.in is not very practical: it makes this file not very
readable, and puts the dependency away from the package itself, which
can sometimes be confusing. Therefore, this commit moves the dependency
in each package Config.in file.

help
dcron is a time-based job scheduler with anacron-like
features. It works as a background daemon that parses
individual crontab files and executes commands on behalf of
the users in question.
Upon installation, this package will enable a system level
cron daemon with hourly, daily, weekly and monthly crontabs.
However, it doesn't allow non root users to create their own
crontab file. This is because /var/spool/cron/crontabs is
non user writable.
Typically, a crontab group is created on the system and
users allowed to create crontab entries are added into this
group, while crontab executable is owned by root:crontab
with sgid bit enabled.
