Description

If you install XBMCBox with opkg you have to use the -f option to use the installed configuration file for opkg. Why doesn't opkg-cl default to this configuration?

Initial review makes me think that the default opkg build expects the configuration file under /etc/opkg but the installation target places it under /etc. Either the opkg installation target should be fixed or a post build step will be required to move the configuration file to the correct directly in the target tree.

After looking at the source and buildroot it comes down to something really simple:

The buildroot skeleton in the pibox source tree has the opkg.conf in the wrong place. It's in etc instead of etc/opkg. So the fix is just to move the location of the conf file in the skeleton.

Updated in kepler's sandbox. Still need to check it in. Kepler is doing a full build right now - I'll check in changes after that completes and can be tested on the hardware.
