This was working great for me until I just upgraded to the latest [poky]
master (rev dbb247cac5fbf7b037e4955f9793828451723924).  With the SDK_TARGETS
line in my local.conf, I get this error:

ERROR: Error for /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-rainier-am335x-p8701/packages/images/magicard-demo-image_1.0.bb, 
dependency ti-cgt-pru-native:do_populate_sysroot:do_populate_sysroot does not contain exactly one ':' character.
  Task 'rdepends' should be specified in the form 'packagename:task'

Any ideas what changed and how I get it working again?

Thanks
