Description Lucian Musat 2015-12-16 09:45:03 UTC
While running the automated tests for 2.1 M1 lately I see that there are more frequent do_fetch problems than usual. I had to retry the build of most of the images we were testing before it managed to complete the build. 
Tried to build a qemux86-64 on latest master from scratch and the build stopped two times and I had to re-issue the bitbake command. 

Ex:

I wonder if this is the same problem fixed by http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/109729/
Comment 2 Juro Bystricky 2015-12-18 20:57:45 UTC
I can confirm I'm having the same problem out of sudden.
There are two problem files that fail fetching frequently:
ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://git.gnome.org/mobile-broadband-provider-info'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.
ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'git://git.yoctoproject.org/psplash'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.

It seems the problem has gone (no fetch problems in past few weeks), most likely due to the patch you mentioned.
I am going to close this, it can be reopened if somebody runs into this again.
