I tried to reproduce the bug but the building finished succesfully.
I made the test on poky master branch, commit b049d53. Does this bug still apply to you now ?

I suppose you tested only by building dpkg and not an entire image containing dpkg.

Closing the bug because no further detail was provided, so i suppose it cannot be reproduced anymore.

Comment 3 Kai Kang 2013-10-17 01:38:33 UTC

After check build log, it works for me too now.
