Why is the second copy a problem? Can you elaborate? Don't describe the 
fix, describe the issue.

 From what I can see, run-postinsts will execute opkg configure if opkg 
is available, or run the scripts directly if opkg is not available - 
which is fine. Why do you need to avoid saving the scripts in /etc if 
opkg is installed?
