I have used RC5 since it was released, and the default settings was to download updates from http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages.
(The kernel I use is the default 2.4.30-brcm-3)

I upgraded the packages on all my routers last day (with ipgk upgrade), and then it installed some new kernel modules:
kmod-brcm-wl_2.4.30-brcm-4_mipsel.ipk
kmod-wlcompat_2.4.30-brcm-4_mipsel.ipk

These modules depends on the kernel 2.4.30-brcm-4 !, and they got installed anyway!?!

# ipkg info kmod-brcm-wl | grep Depends
Depends: kernel (2.4.30-brcm-4)

Those modules broke the wireless support, including the wds support and the devices could only be accessed with a normal network cable.

Are there any bugs in ipkg which makes it ignore the depending version?
I have changed my /etc/ipkg.conf to download packages from these urls until I upgrade to RC6 later...

src whiterussian http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/rc5/packages
src non-free http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/rc5/packages/non-free

Have anyone else noticed this problem?  I guess many other users upgrade from http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages
by mistake, so should that directory be there in the future?
