The resulting output is only different in terms of what the user has changed in 
the sources (if anything) and the sstate checksum. Why do you want it to be 
producing the same checksum for potentially different contents?

It intentionally changes the checksum yes, and as Richard said we should 
probably mention this in the help text. I will produce a v2 of this series 
that does that.
