[Crash-utility] timeout in eppic.mk

[Karlsson, Jan]

To avoid all problems with the git command one possibility is to remove it completely from the make file. Let the users that want to build the eppic extension manually perform "git clone" once to download the software. I think that I would prefer that solution.

Per,

Sorry I got to Cliff's patch before yours -- so can you rework your patch using the version of eppic.mk that is attached to:
