you shouldn't delete all the conf files from /etc/opkg, because there's 
one file there which would appear to tell opkg about your system 
architecture, deleting it causes the error you describe:

root at om-gta02:~# cat /etc/opkg/arch.conf
arch all 1
arch any 6
arch noarch 11
arch arm 16
arch armv4t 21
arch fic-gta02 26
arch neo1973 31
arch om-gta02 36
