Good to see that PREMIRRORS works in your side. one thing i am not quite sure is that the above commit use http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/sources/ as PREMIRRORS, but http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/sources/ only contains a webcam-tools svn repo, which looks not a valid mirror, so i am not sure how it works. or maybe i miss something here?
