   > This still feels like a step backwards, though. Make is doing its 
level-best to tell if something needs to be rebuilt, but it's just not quite 
smart enough to do it - so instead we just give up any kind of change detection?
   
   @ocket8888 Yes, because that RPM is not being used for ATS development, it 
uses ATS release branches. `ATS_SOURCES` does not refer to the source code of 
ATS, just the sources for this particular build environment, which is pretty 
mundane.
   
   If a developer wanted to test their own ATS dev work in CDN in a Box, they 
would supply their own RPM, in which case they wouldn't want to use the 
makefile for the ATS RPM anyway.
   
   That's an edge case, though. Most people using CDN in a Box just wand an ATS 
RPM, any ATS RPM. Recall that, until #5920, we used an ancient ATS RPM from 
ATS's CI server, it wasn't a `make` goal at all.
