Importing a .ecm file will do nothing to the ecos.db packages database
in the component repository. Instead it will modify your current
configuration, as described by the ecos.ecc savefile in your build
tree. It has the same net effect as running up the graphical
configuration tool and manipulating certain options. For well-defined
tasks like building RedBoot for a given target, the import is easier
and more robust.
