Thanks Ross, that was a great help! Not sure I would found it...
Indeed python3 was installed but not all required elements:
sudo apt-get install python3-distutils was my friend.
Best regards

I mean the host, as that's running code using the host python during the 
build.

Try this:

$ python3 -m distutils.sysconfig

If that does nothing then your Python is working.  If it fails then you 
need to install the full Python 3 on your machine, not just minimal.

I use a poky core-image-minimal with some packages added - as for instance strace and valgrind (for armv7a).
Strange - yocto in older versions generates images with valgrind/strace .. without any complaints.
So both PC and image-recipe are same, but in Yocto 2.5 and 2.7 it works, in 3.0 not ?!?

Sorry I am confused, do you mean python is missing in requested image or at host PC with Ubuntu 1804? If it is missing in image,
shouldn't it be included by dependencies automatically?

At UbuntuPC python 2.7 is installed:
python
Python 2.7.15+ (default, Oct 7 2019, 17:39:04)
[GCC 7.4.0] on linux2

distutils.sysconfig is part of the standard Python library.  What 
distribution are you using?  It's possible that you've only got a 
'minimal' Python installed instead of the full thing.

The recipe responsible is icu-native.  Something in your build depends 
on this, such as boost-native maybe.

Build of image failed, I got strange and long error messages like:

-----

The messages has been so strange (to me) - couldn't found the trigger for building that. Finally I bitbaked all my image packages manually and found that strace and valgrind triggers this icu-native. So I have two questions:

a) What goes wrong here and how can this be avoid?
b) How do I found which module is responsible. There is nothing about strace/valgrind mentioned in the log. I just had to build all my additional packets of my image manually to find the triggers for this icu-native.

Thank you
