Well, either you're using angstrom or you aren't. If you do want to use
it then you ought to set DISTRO appropriately, and if you don't want to
use it then you probably oughtn't to have the angstrom layer included at
all.
Trying to use the angstrom .bbappends and files with a different (or no)
distro configuration will give you a set of metadata that's neither one
thing nor the other and, even if you didn't get a build error, there's
no guarantee that the resulting image would actually work.
