At least the openmoko SHR distribution fetches ipkg from network and
requires curl support hence.
That's not true, with curl disabled, it calls (busybox) wget.
appear to want/need gpg or curl support in opkg; so have opkg.inc
remove them by default.
I do not think that supporting only offline mode (due to removal of
curl support) is a good idea. Although the opportunistic signature
verification is not secure, it would be imo bad to remove gpg support
completely because updating embedded devices in a secure manner is
important.
A better way might be to conditionalize your '--disable-*' options
resp. make them depend on some DISTRO_FEATURE.
Introducing USE flags would be a step backwards, so NAK on that.
Increasing (or decreasing...) USE flags, now there's a topic for the TSC...
