If you look at the log you can see what is happening: tar: .: file changed as we read it I think this is probably related to do_package_write_ipk and do_package_write_tar running concurrently, and temporary files being written to and then removed from PKGDESTWORK by the former during its operation. Assuming that's the case, we just need to ignore those files as we have for the other package backends. 40666 1 bluelightning 2014-02-25 10:27:59 +0000 Fix merged to master: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=ae1265809503494f4c5da21c8335cedc3569ba62
