This is not the best idea as the tg799 only has ~20mb of free space

Thanks @bluee for your PR!

I agree with @kevdagoat that there's some caveats here with device space (plus for anyone running a bridged modem this won't work) but it's helpful to have the main repo feeds for small packages or someone using a USB stick with extroot.

So, I've taken part of the PR and implemented at https://github.com/davidjb/technicolor-tg799vac-hacks/commit/10b818457f7fffe41adad2c3db67a35bfc867e7d. Making changes to /etc/opkg/conf doesn't appear necessary since the same config is present by default (at least for me).

Thanks 👍
