Details - Hello,

opkg can remove itself too easily. Just a wrong paste can run something like;

 opkg remove opkg install openvpn-openssl

It runs happily. However, without opkg, I cannot reinstall it.
This is very difficult to undo.

opkg should be somehow pre-locked in order to avoid removal. The user should need to supply some time of force or unlock the package before in order to really remove opkg.
