Now, that you mentioned it, I have also seen it before! There was a file clash
between 2 recipes providing the same file, so opkg was waiting for the user
input asking to overwrite the file during the rootfs step. But opkg I/O is

problem from the rootfs log file in the tmp/work directory, where the
output is being redirected to... :)
