I think I know what's going on here. In previous editions it was enough to 
have just the meta-intel sub-layer in your bblayers.conf (e.g. meta-crownbay) 
- now you also need to add meta-intel itself to get certain common files. If 
you do this then your errors will go away.

I did notice this the other day and I think we can improve things such that 
you get a sensible error message in this situation rather than the above. I 
will try to send out some patches next week.

Cheers,
Paul
