Ahh yes, missed the || at the end of the line.

OK. I notice now that your have rm -rf $(IMAGE) instead of
$(BINARIES_DIR). I guess we want the latter, as $(IMAGE) is just a
prefix, not a file name.

 Bernhard> ack.

OK.

What about $(BUILD_DIR)? I guess we would want to delete that as well?

 Bernhard> It would be nice if you could still pick it up and also sign/upload the .bz2

I do already:

ls *.bz2*
buildroot-2009.02-rc1.tar.bz2       buildroot-2009.05-rc3.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.02-rc1.tar.bz2.sign  buildroot-2009.05-rc3.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2       buildroot-2009.05.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.02-rc2.tar.bz2.sign  buildroot-2009.05.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.02-rc3.tar.bz2       buildroot-2009.08-rc1.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.02-rc3.tar.bz2.sign  buildroot-2009.08-rc1.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.02-rc4.tar.bz2       buildroot-2009.08-rc2.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.02-rc4.tar.bz2.sign  buildroot-2009.08-rc2.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.02.tar.bz2           buildroot-2009.08-rc3.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.02.tar.bz2.sign      buildroot-2009.08-rc3.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.05-rc1.tar.bz2       buildroot-2009.08.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.05-rc1.tar.bz2.sign  buildroot-2009.08.tar.bz2.sign
buildroot-2009.05-rc2.tar.bz2       buildroot-snapshot.tar.bz2
buildroot-2009.05-rc2.tar.bz2.sign

But the script generates it all from a single .tar.gz - Anyway, that's a
minor detail.
