[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] cooker: Drop useless parsing exception

[Richard Purdie]

The SyntaxError exception simply shows the recipe that failed to parse
which is pretty useless without the actual exception. We could make it
print more info, however we can just use one of the more generic handlers
instead and remove this one.

For a python indentation error, this leads to a much more readable error
message.
