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,
