OK, this has nothing to do with Python version - you're using a new BitBake version with the OE classic metadata and the two are not compatible for the reason shown in the error - comments are no longer allowed within multi-line expressions. There are three choices: a) Switch back to an earlier version of BitBake (e.g. 1.12.x) b) Move up to OE-Core [1] c) Go through and fix all of these comments Cheers, Paul [1] http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OpenEmbedded-Core -- Paul Eggleton Intel Open Source Technology Centre
