libgettextsrc_la-message.lo should be a short text file. Could you
find it in your build tree and post a copy?

At a guess, something a little unusual with the setup of your Kubuntu
system. Combining Ubuntu 16.04 with OE 2.0 isn't so out of the
ordinary and others would certainly have hit the problem before now if
it was always seen.

Did you install all the standard host dependencies?

  https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html#packages

Did you manually upgrade or downgrade any of these host tools? Or is
the Kubuntu system a fairly clean generic installation?
