Yes, I understand the suggestion but the message is hidden behind
big-red-error with last lines:
    Exception: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'build/tmp/work/col_vf50_proceq-poky-linux-gnueabi/console-proceq-image/1.0-r0/sdk-ext/image//opt
    /eagle/3.0.2/conf/local.conf.bak' ->
'build/tmp/work/col_vf50_proceq-poky-linux-gnueabi/console-proceq-image/1.0-r0/sdk-ext/image//opt/eagle/3.0.2/conf/local.conf'

So the user might not even spot the suggestion.  The second point is
that if by default distribution cannot compile one of basic features of
Yocto, then I doubt that it has the same level of support as others.

Best regards,
