We just noticed this yesterday too. The story with the recipe is that after 
dylan it got moved to the OE-Core repository, but it's just as broken there so 
we'll need to fix it in dylan in meta-oe and in master of OE-Core, and from 
there we can get it backported to daisy/dora branches of OE-Core as well. If 
you could send a patch that would be great.

Cheers,
Paul
