I am trying to add meta-qt5 layer to my Yocto, here am using krogoth Master. I added the line

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " qtbase qtbase-tools qtbase-plugins"
in my local.conf and i added
/home/user/yocto/poky/meta-qt5 \
in my .bb file. Now if i tried to build
bitbake qtbase
its showing error like                                                     
ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'qtbase'
i don't know whether the steps am following is correct are not...my target machine is MACHINE = "dra7xx-evm". I want to add this meta-qt5 layer... please help me regarding this am new to this..  
                yeah i added...  /home/user/yocto/poky/meta \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-poky \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-ti \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-qt5 \   /home/user/yocto/poky/openembedded-core \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \   /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-openembedded/meta-ruby \

                Could post the the initial output from when you're running bitbake? I.e. the one showing all layers and versions.

I dont Know why you added /home/user/yocto/poky/meta-qt5 \ to local.conf file . But add the new layer to BBlayer.conf file . 
Now check the name of the recipe file in the meta-qt5 layer  bitbake the recipe name also don't include  version of the recipe (if there is any ).
