I'm chasing a bug that looks very like this at the moment. I don't have
a proper fix for it yet but you could try and "bitbake linux-yocto -c
populate_sysroot -f" and then try and build your image again which
should work around the problem.

I'm assuming this is with master rather than the release and you might
have rm_work enabled?

Cheers,
