Whilst this works to a point, the minimal eSDK doesn't contain sstate
objects so I'm not sure this is actually going to work in that case? We
could always used the locked-sigs.inc file to act as an idea of what
the eSDK contains?

Also, your patch only considers MULTIMACH_TARGET_SYS and TARGET_SYS
architectures and we also have allarch and machine specific packages it
would miss.
