My host system's python version is too old due to the recent changes. So I

I did some digging, the problem in the end is related to ncurses within the
nativesdk.
Running the following:
py_v26_check=`python -c 'import sys; print sys.version_info >= (2,6,3)'`
which python
echo "$py_v26_check" | od -c
if [ "$py_v26_check" != "True" ]; then

You can see the difference in behavior:
TERM=xterm
/home/lmhatle/build-qemux86_64-2/buildtools/sysroots/x86_64-wrlinuxsdk-linux/usr/bin/python
0000000 033 [ ? 1 0 3 4 h T r u e \n

BitBake requires Python 2.7.3 or later

TERM=vt100
/home/lmhatle/build-qemux86_64-2/buildtools/sysroots/x86_64-wrlinuxsdk-linux/usr/bin/python

So as you can see specifying a different terminal type is happily changing the
output of python. When I use my locally built version, I don't get the same
behavior. I always get the second version.
So is there a problem with the nativesdk python, nativesdk ncurses or???
(I've not yet filed a bug on this, but I will if I can't figure it out soon.)
We've seen this issue but I thought we'd fixed it.
Which version of master did you do this with? This was supposed to be
fixed by
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=c281cd149bdbce29fc69cb34c65c4295cfed2060
and
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=534c4d0f1e287d0ac82504b273a5497d3457582a
I have verified that I have both patches applied. I will continue debugging and
work on the strace next...
FYI this is a x86_64 - CentOS 6.4 machine if it matters..
If you're still having problems, please strace the above python command
and see where its looking for terminfo...
Cheers,
Richard
