Details

Description:

1) when /etc/mkinitcpio.conf includes HOOKS="base ..."
one would expect /bin/busybox to be provisioned in the initramfs from the /usr/lib/initcpio/busybox
https://git.archlinux.org/mkinitcpio.git/tree/install/base

2) however, add_systemd_unit is looking only for host binaries
https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/initcpio-install-systemd?h=packages/systemd#n71

3) so, when add_systemd_unit encounters stanza Exec*=/bin/busybox, it produces error
==> ERROR: file not found: `/bin/busybox'

4) therefore add_systemd_unit should check for already provisioned binaries, for example:

Exec*)
# don't add binaries unless they are required
if [[ ${values[0]:0:1} != '-' ]]; then
local exec="${values[0]}"
if [[ -f $BUILDROOT$exec ]] ; then
quiet "use existing $exec"
else
quiet "use resolved $exec"
add_binary "$exec"
fi
fi
;;
