[yocto] hello world recipe failing at do_patch.

[Arun Kumar]

Hi,

     I am starting out with the yocto project. Created a new recipe 
using the command

     $ yocto-layer create helloworld

I added the directory to the bblayers.conf file in my <buiuld_dir>/conf 
directory. As per my knowledge and article on internet this should be an 
easy build.

$ bitbake helloworld

fails with the following signature.
