If "${WRKDIR}/.build_done" is already present, nothing more will be
extracted or built. This hasn't anything to do with the "update"
target (which has many problems of it's own), but rather it's a
characteristic of the main, "build" target. There's not much point
leaving the old work directories around unless you're debugging the
package, anyhow.
