[Yocto recipe](https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded/tree/master/meta-oe/recipes-core/uutils-coreutils)

The uutils-coreutils recipe is provided as part of the meta-openembedded yocto layer.
Clone [poky](https://github.com/yoctoproject/poky) and [meta-openembedded](https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded/tree/master), add
`meta-openembedded/meta-oe` as layer in your `build/conf/bblayers.conf` file,
and then either call `bitbake uutils-coreutils`, or use
`PREFERRED_PROVIDER_coreutils = "uutils-coreutils"` in your `build/conf/local.conf` file and
then build your usual yocto image.
