+Subject: [PATCH] opkg_conf: create opkg.lock in /run instead of /var/run
+
+This avoids a "Could not unlink" warning when extracting a /var/run
+symbolic link pointing to /run from a package as it is unable to
+unlink the /var/run directory when it contains opkg.lock.
+
+This also fixes an issue where /var/run is created as a directory
+instead of a symbolic link to /run.
+
+Upstream-Status: Inappropriate [OE-Specific]
