After some days to work on this error, a solution has been found. This error 
comes from a recent changed made by Chris Larson in 
$OE_HOME/openembedded/classes/insane.bbclass the 23rd February 2011 
(See http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.openembedded/30331).
A workaround consists in not performing the check package_qa_check_dbg. For 
that, delete it from the setting of the variable checks.  As it is an 
openembedded file, no patch can be applied on. So make changes directly in the
insane.bbclass file.
