Hi!
Sorry, I had a brain-fart last time. Instead of trying to do something
weird, we can just use The Program That Generates Random Numbers:
shuf appeared in coreutils 6.1 (2006-08-19) and is available under busybox.
Attached is a much simpler patchset that does the same thing but just
uses shuf
Hi!

It seemed like /dev/urandom was the universal fallback,

d/postinst hard-depends on bash to generate random days/hours/minutes;
however,
od -d -An -N2 /dev/urandom
is equivalent to
bash -c 'echo $RANDOM'
‒ patch 1 replaces the latter with the former;
od is part
