[yocto] [meta-raspberrypi] Current master broken

[Gary Thomas]

I'm currently unable to build for the RaspberryPi-3 using the master branch:

DISTRO_VERSION    = "2.2+snapshot-20161202"
TUNE_FEATURES     = "arm armv7ve vfp thumb neon vfpv4 callconvention-hard cortexa7"
TARGET_FPU        = "hard"
meta              = "master:9e63f81c78e284c9b325fe04a1b59e61c7ad8a1a"

I also tried kernel version 4.7:

I was able to build with 4.8, but X didn't come up :-(

Any ideas?

Note: I changed the 4.7 recipe to use a good revision (c2cbd9c611)
but then I suffered the same problem installing the .dtbo patch :-(
