Package: rubber
Version: 1.1-2.2
Severity: important

When I run rubber on a directory that is watched by dropbox (downloaded package 
from http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=17410 - filing a bug against that 
too) it goes into an infinite loop while compiling latex. I believe this is 
because the dropbox daemon, watching of the files changes them in some way that 
rubber detects and responds to.

Running rubber with increased verbosity shows that the message "dependencies 
were modified" appear for every latex run it does. Also, moving the files to 
another directory and running rubber again shows no problem at all.
