Have you solved this yet ? I've never run into this myself, but maybe my
reply will jog the memory of someone that has.

Have you ruled out that the build is using a versiontools from your host
machine ? And that the versiontools is older than the 1.7 requirement ?

I don't see versiontools already in the layers, so if it is being picked up
from the host, then you very well could end up with this error.

I'd start by creating a versiontools 1.9.1 recipe, put it in the DEPENDS for
your recipe and see if everything is happy after that.
