[Ltib] Problem with "./ltib -e"

[Peter Barada]

Stuart,

While using the latest LTIB, I noticed a difference in action from previous LTIB (8.4.1).

If I "sudo rm -rf rootfs; ./ltib -e" to repopulate the rootfs from scratch (to clean up from installed packages that are now deselected, etc), I noticed that the current ltib will not deploy of any package that is expanded into rpm/BUILD.  Since in my build I need the kernel sources around to build a module, the kernel will not be deployed by ./ltib -e.

The problem (I think) is in build_rpm with the following code:

                    # See if the source tree has been touched
                    $cmd = "find $src_dir -newer $rpms[0] -print";
                    print "checking if sources have been updated: ";
                    if(`$cmd`) {
                        print "yes\n";
                    } else {
                        print "no\n";
                        return 1;
                    }

If I patch LTIB with the following, the "./ltib -e" will deploy all the packages, whether they are expanded into rpm/BUILD or not:

Is this the right way to fix the problem of "./ltib -e" not deploying packages that are expanded into rpm/BUILD?
