Okay ... but is there's no way to regenerate the output/target contents
without doing a 'make dirclean; make' ?
A sort of 'make install' which would:-
(a) delete the output/target contents
(b) copy target_skeleton to output/target
(c) run 'make install' on all selected packages (re-compiling if required)
I'd find that *most* useful !!
