To install repo, you need to follow the instructions here http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html.
I agree that this is missing from the Linaro ARMv8 release notes https://wiki.linaro.org/HowTo/ARMv8/OpenEmbedded, and it should be added.
I would recommend your remove everything, and restart with a fresh install of repo. i don't really understand your initial log error, tbh...

Well actually ~/bin was in my PATH, didn't noticed, was placed in /etc/profile at some point of time.
So I removed ~/bin/repo ~/.repo* openembedded and tried the androind path
Got the same question the repo ask (user name, email) and it failed the same way.

The python error are the sams as the process I followed for armv8, I guess the armv8 process is close to make it, it must hide, all this manual setup of repo, but something is missing on my node that prevent repo the work correctly.
Actually I try to build ksh93, if one of you can build it, I got script that depend on it.
I do all this oe build only for that, I guess it will endup my a manual x compile :)
