Hi Niko,

This does look wrong, thanks for the report! We're looking in to it...

In meta-yocto, the commit that should have been tagged is
9bb6e6e8b016a0c9dfe290369a6ed91ef4020535. In the poky repository that
commit was picked up and everything looks right.

We think we've found the root cause of the wrong commit being tagged,
patches for the autobuilder configuration are incoming.

Best regards,
