My guess was that the missing dependency was from when rootfs always
regenerated an image, so if you were iterating the test suite it would
always rebuild the image.  This isn't the case now.

Someone should speak with QA and see if they actually use the ability to
copy in images.  Cristian, I'm looking at you. :)
