Not that it's a massive deal, but this call to "dirname" is redundant
since dirname ${STATUS} is ${IMAGE_ROOTFS}${opkglibdir} by definition.

Reading this again I wonder what would happen if one of the packages
named in BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS doesn't actually exist.  Can you verify
that this code does something sensible in that case?
