While building poky-image-sato-live against the poky master, the following error will be shown. It reports OSError: [Errno 38] of linux-libc-headers do_install task. However if manually executes: "bitbake linux-libc-headers -c clean && bitbake linux-libc-headers && bitbake poky-image-sato-live", the linux-libc-headers build is successful and the other builds can go forward. I met this issue while compilinig qemux86 and netbook target.

This looks like another case of the pseudo bug, since the call to os.chmod is failing and that is not likely a core problem.
(In reply to comment #1) > This looks like another case of the pseudo bug, since the call to os.chmod is > failing and that is not likely a core problem. Just now I talked with Dongxiao: he can't reproduce the issue any longer recently. I suppose these pseudo related fixes should fix the issue. So let me mark the bug as WONTFIX.
