Is the "if '~' in l" test necessary?

AFAIK, applying expanduser to a string that doesn't contain '~' will
just return the string itself.

True, but why expand (create a new string, have to garbage-collect
the old one, etc) when it's not necessary?

Good point, Gary.  Maybe we should only care about '~' as the first
character in paths?  In this case, "if l.startswith('~')" would do the
trick.

Best wishes.

I did this to show why expanduser is called at all. This makes code self-explanatory and easier to understand.
I was suggested to do it here: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/bitbake-devel/2015-April/005661.html
