I'm having a problem removing ipkgs. As an example of my problems I installed
dillo, removed it, and reinstalled it on /home but when I check the packages
I get

  {53}: ipkg status dillo
  Package: dillo
  Status: install ok installed
  Root: /
  Version: 0.6.0-1
  Conffiles:
   /etc/dillorc ac192e209e51ad65589ea115f93801af

  Package: dillo
  Status: install ok installed
  Root: /home
  Version: 0.6.0-1
  Conffiles:
   /etc/dillorc ac192e209e51ad65589ea115f93801af

and I cannot seem to be able to remove both of them. Similiarly I've installed
QPE in order to fool around with it for a while and while I was able to remove
almost all the X components I cannot seem to get blackbox to come off using
"ipkg remove". Is there some kind of undocumented "force" option? Short of
taking apart the original ipkg and determining what files are in there what
are my options to remove the files?
