Hi, Rubber currently is in overcautious mode since the widely distributed 1.1 release missed rebuilds in a lot of cases and cause quite some user frustration. Since then, I've been working on rewriting the dependency code, a transition which is not quite complete.
As a result, one compilation is currently always forced. We're close to fixing everything up (BibTeX was a huge mess) - this limitation might well be gone for the 1.5 release. @Hilmar The linked patch does not fix this. It just provides more detailed messages. It's worth applying though, same as the other change since 1.4. Both are harmless fixes unlikely to break something.
