This one is pretty obvious - the OE-core metadata now checks for
a set of required tools (beyond the initial sanity check).  Your
machine (or background user that you are using for building these
layers) doesn't have access to them.  You'll need to install that
set of tools, namely:
   cpio chrpath gawk diffstat makeinfo
