You seem to be mixing krogoth branches with master of meta-raspberrypi
(44d41bf is the latest commit on master). I wouldn't expect that to
work at all as master can change in backwards incompatible ways.

It looks like the variable name transitioned from DEPLOY_DIR_IMAGE to
IMGDEPLOYDIR on the master branch of openembedded-core and other
layers. I'd suggest either moving everything forward to master or
moving meta-raspberrypi back to krogoth.

Is there any particular reason why you need the master branch of
meta-raspberrypi or is krogoth good enough for your needs?

Thanks,
Paul
