Softupdates do not work in fai 5.3.5. You get an error message during
task_instsoft, "Undefined subroutine &main::insert called at
/usr/sbin/install_packages line 547.". If you edit that file and
change the subroutine call from insert to insert_pkg, it works.
This error will also appear if you have any package name appended by
a colon and the architecture.
Here's the fix for this.
