Care is needed here. Since the exact bits of a bundle are assumed to
be unique to the exact version and qualifier of a bundle. So, if a
signature
changes, the qualifier (at least) should increment. I do not know of a way
to do that without rebuilding ... but, would be a cool trick if someone did
know of a way!

This general issue is discussed in an old feature request [1]
for p2 to "favor" signed bundles (and could be expanded to favor more
recently signed
bundles) but current behavior is not likely to ever change.

But, I agree with Denis' and John's comments that "it does no harm", so I
think
fine to live with the "helpful" warning rather than rebuild just to get a
new signature.
[If anyone knows of cases where it causes "harm", let us know, but I think
in Eclipse IDE at least,
end-users would never see this warning].
