This seems like a good start, but this isn’t useful:

    AssertionError: True is not false : Layer meta-yocto-bsp changed
signatures.

Presumably this is telling the user it’s modifying things without using the
appropriate overrides for machine or distro, but it doesn’t actually tell
them that, and displaying the changed checksums isn’t of a great deal of
use on its own either, I’d suggest at least capturing the changed variables
via bitbake-diffsigs or bitbake -S printdiff.
