This code was done in narcissus first, which and then copied to OE. The
difficulty here is that when this runs, the OE generated opkg.conf is
already gone. You can make it use the deploy/ipk feeds if you do the
install_lingua step earlier, or add a -f to point to a different config
file location.

Well, it keeps me honest :) It makes me notice public and private feed
discrepancies a lot faster. But I agree that requiring internet access
during do_rootfs is a bad thing.
