full log pending.
Comment 2 Leonardo Sandoval Gonzalez 2016-05-03 03:06:13 UTC 
Another similar error, this time on for a qemuppc machine (PowerPC architecture)

Comment 3 Paul Eggleton 2016-05-03 05:32:55 UTC 
We really need the preparing_build_system.log contents to see what actually failed - I've filed bug 9576 to ensure this gets logged when running the test on the autobuilder in future. In the mean time I've logged in and grabbed it and interestingly the failure is the same on both PPC and MIPS - something is going awry with busybox in particular:

-------------- snip --------------

It looks like the do_populate_lic is what's actually missing from the sstate directory, the other tasks are just dependencies of that. It's odd that this would only affect these two architectures though.
Comment 4 Leonardo Sandoval Gonzalez 2016-05-04 14:36:40 UTC 
In my machine, the problem could not be reproduced. Tested just on qemumips.
Comment 5 Richard Purdie 2016-09-15 15:21:33 UTC 
We're not seeing this issue on the autobuilder any more so I assume this was fixed at some point and the bug just got lost in the system. Resolving accordingly.
