Description Benjamin Esquivel 2015-09-04 22:50:01 UTC
libwnck, provided by meta-gnome, has a fetch failure:

ERROR: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 8, output:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libwnck/2.30/libwnck-2.30.5.tar.xz:
2015-09-04 17:43:57 ERROR 404: Not Found.

And if you look at the web resource, it really does not exist. The one that seems to exist is a .tar.bz2

libwnck is not part of oe-core. It is part of meta-oe/meta-gnome but even that was upgraded to 2.31 in July.

It sounds like you are using a fresh oe-core (which has a new default gnome compression format) and an older meta-gnome (which has a wnck release that isn't available in the new format). Upgrading meta-gnome should help.
