um ... not to be obnoxiously pedantic, but could you avoid top
posting?  it really breaks up the flow of the discussion.

  yup, i noticed that right away.

  ok, but knowing that doesn't solve the problem that the current "git
pull" of kamikaze is therefore broken.  if a regular build of kamikaze
ends up installing an image whose /etc/ipkg.conf file refers to a
non-existent package directory and causes "ipkg update" to fail
thusly:

# ipkg update
Downloading http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/brcm47xx/packages/Packages
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
An error ocurred, return value: 1.
Collected errors:
ipkg_download: ERROR: Command failed with return value 1: `wget
--passive-ftp      -q -P /tmp/ipkg-DWf5go
http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/brcm47xx/packages/Packages'

that's what i would normally consider "broken."  what is the normal
workaround for this?
