With everything in place, you can get back to trying the build again locally:
$ bitbake neard
This build should succeed.
Now you can open up a devshell
again
and repeat the clean and make operations as follows:
$ bitbake neard -c devshell $ make clean $ make tools/snep-send.o
The build should work without issue.
As with all solved problems, if they originated upstream, you need to submit the fix for the recipe in OE-Core and upstream so that the problem is taken care of at its source. See the "Submitting a Change to the Yocto Project" section for more information.
