[PATCH] Fix build failure when retrying build at deconfiguring file /bin/hostname
Hello,
If you attempt a build and it fails for whatever reasons (say, a configuration issue) and then you retry your build without calling lh_clean, you can sometimes run into an issue with the 'deconfiguring file /bin/hostname' step. It'll try to move chroot/bin/hostname.orig to chroot/bin/hostname but chroot/bin/hostname.orig won't exist as chroot/bin/hostname hasn't been moved aside like it expects (ie. the original file is still chroot/bin/hostname). This is frustrating since if the error was ignored, the build would be able to complete successfully and as expected. So, I've created a patch to have lh_chroot_hostname look to see if 'chroot/bin/hostname.orig' exists before attempting to move it to 'chroot/bin/hostname'.
Cheers,
