Doing this makes it possible for a developer to point opkg.conf on the
target to a URL that resolves to platform/packages/. A developer that
is working on a single package can then just do ptxdist targetinstall
foo and on the target:
opkg update
opkg remove foo
opkg install foo

Doing ptxdist images and having the ipkg-repository updated takes too
long when all one is interested is the update of a single .ipkg file
