Build fails with CleanCommand super()-call #224
Description
While trying to upgrade the BitBake recipes for python-semver (Python 2 and Python 3) from version 2.8.1 to 2.9.1, I've encountered the following error which seems to have been introduced by commit 017e296#diff-2eeaed663bd0d25b7e608891384b7298L39-R39.
Here is the relevant BitBake log for Python 3.7:

And here is the corresponding log for Python 2.7:

Looking at the documentation for super() in Python 3 and Python 2 makes me wonder if super(CleanCommand, self).run() might be a typo and should have been super(Clean, self).run().
Changing super(CleanCommand, self).run() to super(Clean, self).run() apparently solves the problem for Python 3. For Python 2, the error message stays more or less the same:
ERROR: Execution of '/yocto/build/3.0-zeus/bbb/tmp/work/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/python-semver/2.9.1-r0/temp/run.do_configure.2883' failed with exit code 1:
