Dear Floris Bos,

The title of the commit should be:

	ipmitool: new package

This looks wrong: I was able to build the ipmitool package without
openssl. So openssl seems like an optional dependency, not a mandatory
one. The fact that David Bachelart was also able to build ipmitool
without openssl seems to confirm this.

So this should be handled like readline, as an optional dependency.

Or, better, use positive logic:

ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_IPMITOOL_IPMIEVD),)

Other than that, looks good to me. Care to fix those issues and resend?

Thanks,
