I will try to sort that out tomorrow (poky at yoctoproject.org, right?).

Regarding python3, whenever I change the "--with-python" option to something other than "python2.7" then I get an error.

If I specify python3.5 then the error is that the build cannot find python3.5.  If I set it to python3.4 (which is installed on the host) then I get an error about system directory poisoning.

This suggests to me that the recipe seems to need both host and target python for this to work.  It worked before so I will look tomorrow at the experimental branch and see what's different, if anything.  I've deleted that branch here and it is gone from git.
