Bug 1133

This is a known issue, that has been discussed in the email lists.  This issue is that qemu-config is bringing in a set of dependencies, some of which are GPLv3, since the qemu-config itself is not GPLv3 there is no direct way to disable it.

A patch is currently pending in the 6/1 Consolidated pull.

Minimal image build also fails for non-GPLv3 build, error log as below:

I tried poky/master, which has the qemu-config fixing patch. The issue does not happen for both minimal/basic for non-GPLv3 build with this branch. So if we want 1.1 M1 has such fixing, we may need to backport the patch.

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=54825128e13cc1b601585daefa84e1dcdd6dc995

This will not be pulled into M1, but it is available in master

Verify with Yocto 1.1 M2 RC3 build, the bug is fixed.
