opkg update, opkg upgrade still results in the same error
But the forced remove above resolves it for me also, a subseqent update,
upgrade gives no errors.
It needs to go somewhere, anyone upgrading actory-installed 2007.2 image
without re-flashing will hit this error message until the forced remove
is done.
