Summary:                    removing acl breaks coreutils
Description: 
there is no module depending in acl in moonbase.
but coreutils and sed are linked to it.
removing acl will make the system unusable.

coreutils should depend on acl:  ldd /bin/ls shows libacl.so.1
sed should depend on acl:  ldd /bin/sed shows libacl.so.1

These commands are too important to make the dependencies optional, and
thus let playing users break their systems ;)

This is indeed a big issue, same goes for sed, another vital tool for
lunar-core. The easiest solution right now is to compile sed and coreutils
with -static if the module acl is installed, yes it adds a little bit to
the size but it would certainly prevent system from breaking if acl for
some reason would be lrm:ed.

Even if we were to put acl in sustained that won't prevent acl-developers
from bumping API/ABI version, which also would result in the system
breaking.

acl and attr have been added to sustained. Still need to fix dependencies
in the modules that currently use acl.

# lvu links coreutils
acl-2.2.49
attr-2.4.44
gmp-5.0.1


--> they should all be in coreutils DEPENDS
