    <thetext>When you are trying to create your own distro layer, but does not accidentally inherit from Poky, the version generated by default will be &apos;6&apos; into the relevant config file.

However, it should be &apos;5&apos; in that case, so you did something wrong. The problem is that the user gets an obfuscated error message about comparing the generated bblayers.conf and the sample from the meta-yocto poky layer.

When the comparison happens, we can realize that there are no differences, so the user has no any idea what can go wrong. I have spent 1-2 days with it before getting some help on IRC.

I suggest to improve the error message with more concrete output what the error might be.</thetext>

    <thetext>Hmm, thanks. Perhaps, you could provide a browsable url next time.</thetext>
