It looks like this is pulling in the package from the openwrt snapshots
repo.

This is a kernel version mismatch issue. Unfortunately, when a package
depends on a kernel module, the build system makes the dependency be for
a specific version of the kernel, so you can't just pull packages from
incompatible repos.


To get your self-built version of the package onto the router, you can
do one of:

1. Select it in menuconfig to be built into the image as you generate it
   (press Y). Then it will be included as you flash.

2. Manually SCP the .ipk from bin/ar71xx/packages/cero/ to the
   router after flashing, then installing with opkg.

3. Make the contents of bin/ar71xx/packages available on a web server
   and point the opkg.conf on your router at that.
