This goal of this PR is to reduce the image size for model with low_mem and low_flash by removing luci packages and unused packages which are currently included in the images. However there are some issues

  • the solution is not elegant and does not distinguish between APs and core routers
  • the OWM script should be present and work on core routers, but should not be installed on APs
    • the OWM script is included in luci-app-falter-owm, but the package brings in luci stuff in addition
  • we should check if we can remove uhttpd completely in addition with the corresponding ubus package
  • core routers flashed with the current version of this PR have issues to bring up SSH in a reasonable time, almost as randomness is missing. The situation resolves after several minutes or sometimes hours.

IMO both options were a workaround to keep at least APs still supported, but for core routers i have doubts it's worth the effort. For APs i'm fine with shrinking the image even more.
