AssertionError: False is not true : 
The following packages failed upstream version checks. Please fix them using UPSTREAM_CHECK_URI/UPSTREAM_CHECK_REGEX
(when using tarballs) or UPSTREAM_CHECK_GITTAGREGEX (when using git). If an upstream version check cannot be performed
(for example, if upstream does not use git tags), you can set UPSTREAM_VERSION_UNKNOWN to '1' in the recipe to acknowledge
that the check cannot be performed.

Comment 1 Ross Burton 2017-09-07 15:24:08 UTC 
Resolving hostap.epitest.fi (hostap.epitest.fi)... failed: Name or service not known.

I suspect that server has disappeared.

Maxin, can you prepare two patches:

1) change SRC_URI to point at the yocto mirror directly (for 2.4M4)
2) remove hostap-utils as it's the PCMCIA driver for a specific wifi card that surely nobody has anymore! (for 2.5)
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2017-09-07 15:33:40 UTC 
2.5) submit the driver to meta-handhelds before deleting from oe-core
Comment 4 Maxin B. John 2017-09-19 08:21:22 UTC 
Removal from oe-core and moving to meta-handhelds are still pending. Moving to 2.5 M1.
Comment 5 Maxin B. John 2017-11-13 08:57:40 UTC 
Ross sent the patch to remove hostap from oe-core:
