There is a patch pending for this issue that will go into master soon. The workaround is either to downgrade that patch or to use the buildtools-tarball which contains the correct version of tar. https://www.yoctoproject.org/download/buildtools-sdk 37931 2 richard.purdie 2013-10-15 10:10:15 +0000 Fixed in master with http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=bf19a8617d05f17506dcb7154e19e2aa2b61838b and the preceding patch.
