¿Cómo usar un repository de git privado mientras construyes yocto usando bitbake en Ubuntu 16.04?

Mientras usaba bitbake después de la configuration, bitbake falló antes de intentar clonar / acceder a un repository privado usando un enlace SSH.

$ bitbake linux-imx git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote ssh://git@gitlab.com:~/some-project/some-repo.git | DEBUG: Python function base_do_fetch finished | DEBUG: Python function do_fetch finished | ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 128, output: | ssh: Could not resolve hostname gitlab.com:~: Name or service not known | fatal: Could not read from remote repository. | | Please make sure you have the correct access rights | and the repository exists. | ERROR: Task 4 (/home/user/Projects/some_project/some-project-release-bsp/sources/meta-fsl-bsp-release/imx/meta-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx_4.1.15.bb, do_fetch) failed with exit code '1' 

Cuando bash eliminar el ~/ de la URL obtengo un error similar.

 | DEBUG: Python function base_do_fetch finished | DEBUG: Python function do_fetch finished | ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 128, output: | ssh: Could not resolve hostname gitlab.com:some-project: Name or service not known | fatal: Could not read from remote repository. 

Incluso traté de modificar la URL a https:, en la que me dio otro error

 git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote http://gitlab.com/some-project/some-repo.git | DEBUG: Python function base_do_fetch finished | DEBUG: Python function do_fetch finished | ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 128, output: | fatal: could not read Username for 'https://gitlab.com': No such device or address | ERROR: Task 4 (/home/user/Projects/some-project/some-project-release-bsp/sources/meta-fsl-bsp-release/imx/meta-bsp/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx_4.1.15.bb, do_fetch) failed with exit code '1' 

Cuando intenté lo mismo en el terminal en lugar de bitbake, tuvo éxito con la salida deseada

 git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote git@gitlab.com:some-project/some-repo.git 

Estoy usando Ubuntu 16.04. Sé que la construcción de Yocto no se testing en Ubuntu 16.04.

 WARNING: Host distribution "Ubuntu-16.04" has not been validated with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution. 

Pero una construcción previa con repositorys públicos tuvo éxito. Entonces, ¿hay alguna manera de hacer que esto funcione?
