1) Try to reproduce the problem using the Angstrom distribution (which
also uses OpenEmbedded, and which is the distribution which is fully
supported by the OpenEmbedded core team of developers), and if you are
able to reproduce it there, then you can report it to the OpenEmbedded
bugzilla without fear of someone closing it simply because it mentions
OpenMoko.


Well, Angstrom build without a glitch. I am able to build
angstrom-console-image and angstrom-x11-image.

2) Find out exactly who else is experiencing the problem, and see if you
 can identify some common factor in that group which differentiates it
from the much larger group of people who are not having a problem.

3) Find someone who is not having the problem (perhaps someone who is
building this in a virtual machine environment like VMWare) and
replicate their environment exactly.  Once you have a working build and
a non-working build, then examine the differences to find where it breaks.


One more thing I have noticed, metadata (result of `mtn head` of
openembedded for angstrom and metadata for openmoko is different. Is
it normal ?

Secondly, as mentioned before, I was able to build openmoko thrice on
same amchine and i have working images too (tested with xoo, if that
can be called working). I did not do any upgrades or installed any
software since the last build, so wht could possibly be causing the
problem ?

Any pointers ?
