Charles, without sounding like I'm endlessly contradictory might I propose that this is, IMO, not the correct way to fix this?
The doc'n regarding partial backups: http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/guide/bubooting.html says:
If you want to backup parts of the package that are not in the /etc and /var/lib/lprkg directories, you have to be sure there is a /var/lib/lrpkg/PACKAGE.local file for each PACKAGE.lrp you are doing partial backup of.
so I think that /etc, within the ETC.LRP package, should get backed-up even in the absence of an etc.local file. Or the doc'n changed to note the exception for ETC.LRP. :)
BTW thank you very much for the detail about the sed syntax - your explanation was much more than was hoped for and makes it all clear to me now.
Thanks for LEAF!

Of course, you could also add a spec *JUST* for the etc.list file as you did above. I added an etc.local file in Dachstein rather than something like your additional sed matching pattern. I think the etc.local file just got lost in the process of making bering-uClibc, as not many folks tend to do partial backups (although it's a great way to upgrade your LRP files...even if I'm installing on a HDD or flash, I make two partitions, one for 'stock' LRP files and the other for partial backups of config data. Then upgrading is (usually) simply a matter of updating the stock package and rebooting).
