If someone could help me resolve this issue, I would appreciate it very much

on a Ubuntu 20.04 host we are building an image with Yocto Kirkstone.

This step worked fine for month but lately fails in the do-configure step of the recipe for systemtap

The tree where the recipe for systemtap is as follows:

Welcome to Freescale Community BSP

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about OE including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/documentation

For more information about OpenEmbedded see their website:
http://www.openembedded.org/

You can now run 'bitbake <target>'

Common targets are:
core-image-minimal
meta-toolchain
meta-toolchain-sdk
adt-installer
meta-ide-support

Your configuration files at build/ have not been touched.
gfsc@Zephyr2950:/mnt/build/jps/HOST/sekHostCombo/build$


we issue the following bitbake command

bitbake systemtap -c cleanall

This step complete successfully

then

bitbake systemtap

This step fails

and here is the log of this failed step

This is it for now. I keep trying various options but so far no good results
if you have some ideas how to fix this it would be FANTASTIC :-)

(By the way, this should be unnecessary unless your patches modify
the configury input files.)

systemtap's configure.ac looks for a program called "python3-config" (in
the python3 case), since your configure invocation specifically asked
for --with-python3* bits.  If that program is installed, maybe run the
configure script with "sh -x" to produce a shell level trace of what
happened.  Or if you don't really need python stuff, drop those --with
options.
