Somebody in the thread at some point said:

|     Today's kernel package appears to be busted.  As someone else pointed
|     out, it is only 1104 bytes long, which is such significantly better
|     compression than normal we can only be suspicious.
|
|     Maybe someone can nuke this package...

| To fix it you can use dfu-util to reflash this kernel

Useful advice, since a kernel package that trashes our device is
evidently not important enough for anyone to remove it from our severs.

Today's ipk is busted the same.

The packages need *nuking*
