This isn't kernel specific.

bitbake -c menuconfig busybox

fails the same way.

There's been no touches to the cml1.bbclass since earlier this year, so I'm not sure why it is failing now.

Someone with more general knowledge should look into this, as my hands are full with other kernel issues at the moment (and will be on vacation shortly)

I'm bouncing this via Ross to see if he has an idea .. to be clear, I'm not assigning it to Ross, I'm just not aware of who's available to look into it.

For what it's worth:
works fine with 627d01997fcf6a0581d88047735769ffb2592b82

Seems this one breaks it:

Comment 4 Ross Burton 2016-07-28 19:42:22 UTC

Patch sent.  I'll admit that it is untested as my build machine is offline right now, so testing would be appreciated.

Comment 5 Juro Bystricky 2016-07-28 20:29:35 UTC

Works for me, with aa6d30dd4229d92cb9a2240a4d43d9abdf83eaae (used to fail before)
(manually pasted the two new lines from the patch)
