This looks like the error I'd expect when mixing an older branch of
poky with the master branch of meta-openembedded or meta-amd. Could
you ensure that all git repositories are checked out at the same
branch (eg. morty) and then re-try. If you still have issues after
that could you post the commit hashes for each repository.

Thanks,
