Hi,
     I just updated my yocto repos and tried a fresh build.

My bblayers.conf file looks like this:

# LAYER_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
LCONF_VERSION = "4"

BBFILES ?= ""
BBLAYERS ?= " \
  /tool/yocto/poky/meta \
  /tool/yocto/poky/meta-yocto \
  /tool/yocto/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \
  /tool/yocto/meta-xilinx \
  "

And when I run the bitake core-image-minimal;bitbake meta-toolchain  I get the following errors:

$ bitbake core-image-minimal;bitbake meta-toolchain;
