running: opkg-install curl bash git - fails because bash package is missing.

The readme says:

## Using and installing packages

This image is meant to be used as the base image for Busybox-based containers. It includes glibc, uclibc, and opkg with an easy-to-use wrapper for installing packages from your Dockerfiles:

    FROM progrium/busybox
    RUN opkg-install curl bash git
    CMD ["/bin/bash"]

• installing curl and git works, if you install them separately.
• bash causes an Unknown package 'bash' error, which is confusing for newbie's like me :)

See issues #1 and #4. Should be fixed as of 0152164.

thx for the info. Just a question. What was going on there?

There's a link toward the end of #4 that explains it. As far as I understand, they are migrating packages to github and some things were offline during the reshuffling. Probably will be some instability there for awhile but switching to release isn't a great option at the moment because they aren't providing x86_64 builds yet.
