Optional removal of *-opkg from /etc/config after upgrade about opkg-upgrade

[tavinus]

Yep. That is on the wish-list.
For now, I need to understand how exactly opkg behaves related to that.

I THINK it will create /etc/config/*-opkg when the new config files are different.
Then it seems to cause errors if you already have a -opkg file and updates again
(update a package more than 2 times).

I need to be sure how that behaves first.

And then offer options like:

• Move files
• Delete files
• Merge files
• Diff files (requires diff-utils)
• Git Diff files (requires git or git-http)

Ideas are welcome.
Cheers!

but there is
--force-maintainer to overwrite all config settings with default from maintainer. I can code it as an option, but still thinking if not better to accept each change because of some individual changes, that may disconnect user from logging in.
Waiting for pro and cons ;-)
