Subject: findutils:/var is populated by base-files, so no need to repack empty dir
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a52278e6400911a3688df63a6ac7f04757d572da;p=thirdparty%2Fopenembedded%2Fopenembedded-core-contrib.git

findutils:/var is populated by base-files, so no need to repack empty dir

findutils installs an empty /var which is already created
by base-files. It doesn't need to be packaged by findutils.
this helps to align towards stateless
system expectations or when updates are done via meta-updater.
