I managed to get the build going, with the untouched profile file.  You
mention ar71xx-tiny.profiles, but this file do not exist.  The
ar71xx-generic.profiles exist.  Is this the one you talk about?

Should I use tl-mr3040-v1 for my router?  Where can I find valid names?
I inserted "tl-mr3040-v1:4MB\ntl-mr3040-v2:4MB" into
profiles/ar71xx-generic.profiles and it seem to have worked, but I see
the messages "*** error: images are too big by 75070 bytes" and am
unsure if the result is good.  I got several files in firmwares/ with
mr3040 in their names:

It was interesting to notice building would start with several of the
required packages missing.  I got the build going without installing
these on Debian: flex libfl-dev libssl-dev libssl-doc libxml-perl quilt
time.  Perhaps the autodetect script should be updated to check for
these too?
