[I have failed -- I had intended to remain silent on the topic of opkg ;-) ]
I use PREFERRED_VERSION, for a reason -- opkg has numerous issues, few
of which seem to be well-understood much less being worked on, and it
seems that small-memory devices trigger these issues more so than the
larger more common systems.
I will be back-porting these patches for the opkg-nogpg-nocurl recipe,
regardless.
If folks would rather not have the ever-growing set of opkg-nogpg-nocurl
patches clutter up the opkg recipe directory, feel free to instruct me
to move that all to a different directory.
