Sorry but my 'hook' was some late night crap. 

I attached what I did up to now. It is meta-xfce which should live in meta-
openembedded. I checked on fresh tmp and without downloaded sources. For (at 
least) xfwm4 and xfce4-appfinder build fails when downloading sources. For xfce4-
appfinder I get:

ERROR: Function 'Fetcher failure for URL: 
'http://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/xfce4-appfinder/4.8/xfce4-
appfinder-4.8.0.tar.bz2'. Unable to fetch URL

If I enter http://archive.xfce.org/src/xfce/xfce4-appfinder/4.8/xfce4-

downloaded properly!!

Could somebody please spend some time with the attachment and tell me what's 
going on here??

Thanks

Andreas

I'd guess it's Yocto #1256[1], namely that "fetcher reports a download
failure when only the SRC_URI checksums mismatched"

The idea is that the fetcher retries downloads a few times when the
checksums do not match, unfortunately at the default log level this just
looks like a fetch failure.

Can you run bitbake with -DD and see if you can see a checksum error? Or
just verify checksums by hand?

Cheers,
Joshua
