I haven't tried to compile linux-yocto-dev but I have my own v6.11-rc6 
based kernel recipe.

It failed to build on Scarthgap because I was missing coreutils-native 
(specifically truncate binary) because CONFIG_KALLSYMS was enabled. This 
comes from 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=1472464c6248575bf2d01c7f076b94704bb32c95

It seems there are some config fragments in linux-yocto-cache 
(ktypes/base/base.cfg) with it, so maybe we want to always add the 
dependency (or is there a way to add a build time dependency from an 
.scc file?).

Is there anything I can help with?

Cheers,
Quentin
