I have seen the error below in six setscene tasks I am running, out of a total of 889 setscene tasks.
The failing tasks are:

e2fsprogs-native-1.43-r1 do_populate_sysroot_setscene
unzip-native-1_6.0-r5 do_populate_sysroot_setscene
python3-native-3.5.2-r1.0 do_populate_sysroot_setscene
perl-native-5.22.1-r0 do_populate_sysroot_setscene
pkgconfig-native-0.29.1+gitAUTOINC+87152c05be-r0 do_populate_sysroot_setscene
binutils-cross-x86_64-2.27-r0 do_populate_sysroot_setscene

The error looks like:

ERROR: e2fsprogs-native-1.43-r1 do_populate_sysroot_setscene: Error executing a python function in exec_python_func() autogenerated:
