I had the same problem.  Looks like a packaging bug or something.

root at om-gta02:~# find / |grep exposure
/usr/lib/opkg/info/exposure.control
/usr/lib/opkg/info/exposure.list
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/exposure.py
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/exposure.pyo
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/exposure-0.2-py2.5.egg-info
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/exposure-0.2-py2.5.egg-info/PKG-INFO

/usr/share/exposure
/usr/share/exposure/exposure.edj
/usr/share/images/exposure.jpg
/usr/share/applications/exposure.desktop

Notice that there is no 'exposure' or 'exposure.py' in a path anywhere,
and the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications does not specify a
path.

I tried to manually run it from SSH, and that didn't work:

root at om-gta02:~# DISPLAY=0:0
python /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/exposure.py This is a module
which has to be launched via the app-launcherd.py: python
app-launcherd.py exposure root at om-gta02:~# python app-launcherd.py
exposure python: can't open file 'app-launcherd.py': [Errno 2] No such
file or directory

I'm not really sure where to go from here.  'opkg whatprovides' wasn't
helpful at all.
