So I switched my meta-openembedded to denzil and that got by the 
meta-openembedded errors but then produced and error out of meta-ti.  I 
also tried removing the meta-openembedded/meta-oe layer and got the same 
error:

ERROR: No recipes available for:
   /home/jim/meta-ti/recipes-core/netbase/netbase_5.0.bbappend

This is like one of those puzzles that if you pull the wrong piece it 
all falls apart :-)
