I'm not sure if that's a good idea, I ran into this scenario:

/tmp in base-files.ipk is a symlink to /var/tmp
I delete the symlink and create a proper dir for /tmp
opkg upgrade base-files

*boom*

unarchive raises an error and I'm without /etc/fstab, /etc/profile,
etc

I'm not sure what the right behaviour should be, but this isn't. I
suspect opkg should 'roll back' and reinstate the old files on
failure, but I don't know how hard it is to add that.

regards,

Koen
