Hi Alan,

It looks like the error you are getting for the attr build is related
to the native (aka host build) and not for the target. It might have
something to do with your hosts configuration or setup, or something
along those lines. Are you using a distro that was supported/validated
for the Dizzy release?

First if you haven't try doing a clean and rebuild in-case there is
some odd state or something (or just a re-build of attr, bitbake
attr-native -c cleansstate && bitbake attr-native). If you hit the
same issue again, its worth sifting though or posting the
"log.do_compile" and "log.do_install" logs to see if there is any more
information about what is going wrong.

Also its worth posting your issue to the Yocto/OE mailing list as
well, since as this is a general issue and not specifically related to
meta-xilinx.

Regards,
Nathan
