Thanks, that makes more sense now.  I removed the layer meta-systemd 
from bblayers.conf and used the

BBMASK ?= ".*/meta-ti/recipes-(misc|bsp/formfactor)/"

statement in local.conf to solves the problem.

What is really causing the problem?  Without it dependencies on 
meta-systemd are there, but the mask removes that??  Why can you remove 
a dependency?
