[oe] Rebuild from packaged staging: issues with do_package_update_index_ipk

[Andrea Adami]

I know this kind of rebuild is allowed: see what RP says in this thread:

http://projects.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-devel/2009-June/011810.html

"Personally, I just remove
directories except tmp/deploy/pstage or change DEPLOY_DIR itself outside
TMPDIR...
"

This patch seems indeed to solve:

diff --git a/classes/package_ipk.bbclass b/classes/package_ipk.bbclass
index e3a7522..1772cad 100644
--- a/classes/package_ipk.bbclass
