[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH v2] package-ipkg: Do not fail build without base-files

[Christian Schoenebeck]

In general that's right, but disabling all postinst(-pkg) and prerm(-pkg) is more than awful.
If base-files not selected you should nevertheless call postinst-/prerm-pkg.
Otherwise their is no real chance to work without base-files whatever you do in package Makefile.
