That is a question I'd love to have the answer to. Something went wrong
but I don't know what. If you had the old sstate package, it would have
been interesting to compare the old and new ones but you've probably
deleted that now :(. If you do still have them I'd be very interested in
a copy of the two files.

Was this with master or the 2011-1 release branch (or are you using poky
and one of its release branches)?
