Just tried again today. The packages still don't get upgraded using
opkg ugrade. It says they do during the process, but they definitely
aren't. It's almost like I did opkg -test upgrade.

But, if I upgrade a package specifically, it works fine. I'm not about
to pick out each package and do an opkg upgrade on it. I can't figure
out what would cause this. I think zeckes feeds worked fine. I'll have
to try them again and test the same way.

Anyhow, if any one tries these feeds and it works for them, please let
me know.
