Yes, this is fixed, thanks.

Query: is 'cleanall' expected to also remove files from $DL_DIR?
It does so, but produces no notes about it (it's pretty verbose
about all the other files it deletes)

If this is the case, could there be a 'cleansstate' or some
such?  All I really wanted to do was force a complete rebuild
of a package, ignoring the local sstate files.  'cleanall'
gave me more than I bargained for.
