It was never my intention to create new recipes for all the packages that are in this foreign repository. I would have to update every 2 weeks or so to keep in sync with that repository. Don't want that! I only want to install the package that is in that repository and its dependencies. This is what I did. Added the foreign repository in: angstrom-feed-configs.bbappend So with 'opkg update' it is read. Created an empty 'placeholder' recipe for the package to include. When I bitbake my image this empty package is included in the rootfs. Now i only have to 'opkg update/upgrade' to get the actual packages in. This is by far the easiest solution (I think...) Thanks again!
