OpenWrt is using a modified version of the software and these modifications
may introduce extra bugs (or behavior changes). It is also patched for
stable releases instead of switching to new releases. The revision should
therefore be added to the version number to make it easier understandable
which modified version the user may have installed.

Occationally /proc/net/if_inet6 contains interface IDs with
three digits. In this case, the regex in wait_for_ll_address()
does not work anymore and alfred is not starting.
This patch changes the evaluation so that fields are used instead
of the mere position by counting characters.

kmod-ipv6 is obsolete.
The symbol IPV6 is a global config symbol, don't select it because it
will override the user decision of IPV6 as all other package in base do
it. A select (+) will also create a recursive dependency error.

This reverts commit bcaa87776f.
Caused circular dependencies; reverted for now. (kmod-ipv6 explicit
dependencies _should_ be eliminated though, but this is clearly not
the way.)
Changes between alfred 2015.0 and 2015.1 cause alfred to print an error
and exit when the interface to bind to is not completely set up (has no
non-tentative link-local address). As a workaround, wait for such an
address by reading /proc/net/if_inet6 before alfred is started.
In the long term, it would be nice to make alfred more robust against
missing interfaces (allowing alfred to start without the interface
existing, and keeping it working even when the interface is removed and
re-added while alfred is running).

Wait up to 30 seconds during init.d script on boot, so that batmanif can
come up. If the timeout is reached, the init.d script refuses to start
alfred and related daemons.
This prevents an alfred crash when it would start during early boot, before
batmanif is available. Instead, alfred is started as soon as batmanif appears,
if that happens during the 30-second window.

Provide a lua script that uses alfred to propagate and collect all
interface mac + names, then generate a /tmp/bat-hosts file.
If there's already a (probably hand-made) /etc/bat-hosts it won't overwrite it,

Alfred expects to be fed data periodically, but there's currently no easy
way to do that from scripts, prompting people to write whole C programs
to accomplish tasks that could easily be scripted.

cronjob, when alfred is started by the init.d script.

Add A.L.F.R.E.D - Almighty Lightweight Fact Remote Exchange Daemon
to the OpenWRT routing feed. This package contains the latest stable
release of alfred which has been recently published by the
open-mesh.org community. A description follows below.
alfred is a user space daemon for distributing arbitrary local
information over the mesh/network in a decentralized fashion. This data
can be anything which appears to be useful - originally designed to
replace the batman-adv visualization (vis), you may distribute
hostnames, phone books, administration information, DNS information,
the local weather forecast ...
alfred runs as daemon in the background of the system. A user may insert
information by using the alfred binary on the command line, or use
special programs to communicate with alfred (done via unix sockets).
alfred then takes care of distributing the local information to other
alfred servers on other nodes. This is done via IPv6 link-local
multicast, and does not require any configuration. A user can request
data from alfred, and will receive the information available from all
alfred servers in the network.
