ok, a bit more info. i have the symlink you have above:
package/openwrt-packages -> ../feeds/packages
but if you go into feeds/packages, do you see the following?
drwxrwxr-x 9 rpjday rpjday 4096 2008-03-17 12:39 admin
drwxrwxr-x 15 rpjday rpjday 4096 2008-03-17 12:39 ipv6
drwxrwxr-x 24 rpjday rpjday 4096 2008-03-17 12:39 lang

lrwxrwxrwx 1 rpjday rpjday 17 2008-03-17 12:40 packages -> ../feeds/packages
drwxrwxr-x 4 rpjday rpjday 4096 2008-03-17 12:39 skels

drwxrwxr-x 15 rpjday rpjday 4096 2008-03-17 12:39 XOrg
that's where the useless symlink is. should it be there?
