[luci] [9558] on 0.11 branch requires newer opkg

I have an OpenWrt build that I maintain for my project which is 
following the Attitude Adjustment branch. I had been also following 
LuCI's 0.11 branch thinking that's what will be compatible with AA, is 
that correct?

If so, changeset [9558] has a change in it that requires the OpenWrt 
trunk version of opkg. Specifically the change made to luci-lib-ipkg 
which relies on your patches (find and nocase) to opkg. It makes the 
System > Software page come up with a 500 Internal Server Error as the 
opkg pipe is actually spitting out opkg usage information due to the 
unknown command line parameters. (This makes the name nil which makes 
lua complain about it being a table index)

This is the LuCI 0.11 change that imports the code into 0.11 from [9424] 
in LuCI trunk
http://luci.subsignal.org/trac/changeset/9558/luci/branches/luci-0.11/libs/ipkg/luasrc/model/ipkg.lua

The needed opkg updates are in OpenWrt trunk [34202] and [34203]. Will 
these be backported to OpenWrt AA or am I following the wrong LuCI 
branch for AA?
