FWIW, meta-arago explicitly masks those recipes, so you shouldn't be having 
those errors or have to remove the recipes:
http://arago-project.org/git/?p=meta-arago.git;a=blob;f=meta-arago-distro/conf/distro/arago.conf;hb=HEAD#l2

Also, it was discussed here just few days ago:

a flame war by raising this hard issue?
