The download is only the 154M + 108M, the rest is the size on disk when
this is decompressed.  This is less than the previous version which
cloned the git repo of slimserver-vendor and hence got other branches
too.

/etc/makepkg.conf is updated by the latest create-sdcard script for
people using a wandboard.  For others they will need to update manually.
