Devirginator packaging

Werner,

I'm looking at packaging devirginator in OE, so it can be installed on
OE target devices (like the Linksys NSLU2) and used to reflash Neos.

Currently devirginator works by running the setup script, which
downloads all the flashable data and creates the flashing scripts.  Then
the actual devirginate script just uses the data.

I want to work out how to package this all so that you install the
latest devirginator package (which doesn't include any flashable data,
and installs itself into /usr/sbin and /usr/share/devirginator for the
support scripts), and then you run it to both download the desired
snapshot (or to use local data if you have built things yourself), and
then flash it.

Any comments, ideas, objections?
