xxd converts hex file to 32 bytes binary on Mac, 30 bytes on busy box?

I am using xxd to convert a file containing the following hex private key:

608e9b6f67c65e47531e08e8e501386dfae63a540fa3c48802c8aad854510b4e

simply by

xxd -r -p hex > bin

this command generates a binary with 32 bytes on Mac OS Big Sur xxd V1.10 27oct98 by Juergen Weigert and generates 30 bytes on busy box docker image BusyBox v1.33.1 (2021-06-07 17:33:50 UTC) I have no idea why ?

It should generate a 32 bytes binary on busy box.

Update #1 hex (hexdump of the binaries)

binary in busy box

binary in Mac OS Big Sur

00000000  60 8e 9b 6f 67 c6 5e 47  53 1e 08 e8 e5 01 38 6d  |`..og.^GS.....8m|

Solution

I figured it out. In xxd busybox implementation, argument -c defaults to a 30, changing it to 32, gives the same result as Mac OS Big Sur:

xxd -r -p -c 32 hex > bin
