[bitbake-devel] [PATCH 14/15] siggen: add means of ignoring basehash mismatch

[Paul Eggleton]

If you run the setVariable command to set variables then you end up
causing the basehash to not match the previously computed values, which
triggers error messages. These mismatches are expected, so add a means
of disabling them.
