[poky] Getting error in linux-yocto kernel during build.

[chinmaya hoshing]

Hi,

In Downloads directory whatever were the entries for linux kernel
I have kept them in downloads folder while building.
After this I disconnected the network and started the build ,But it throws
error for Unable to fetch source for linux-libc-headers, whereas building my
kernel  i.e linux-yocto_git.bb with this downloads does not create any
problem.
