Hello, did you mean the SSTATE_MIRRORS ? I thought that I had
considered it since I used the "touch --no-dereference",
make a clear check is reasonable if I understand correctly,
so updated the code in the repo: (The --no-dereference is not
need any more since the "test -w" follows symlink).

diff --git a/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass b/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass
