trying to build beagleboard-demo-image without abiword

now that the newer version of firefox finally builds on my 64-bit
ubuntu system, the only obstacle is *&@^#*(@&^%) abiword and i really
don't want to waste any more time trying to debug it so i just want to
drop it from the demo image build.

  after a quick perusal, i applied the following patch to my OE
checkout:

which i thought was enough but the creation of the root image still
complained that it was missing a dependency of abiword-meta.

  i can't immediately see what else i need to adjust, or maybe it's
just that i have most of the demo image .bb files parsed and staged
that that dependency has now been recorded, so i just removed the
entire angstrom-dev/ directory and i'm letting it build again.

  but have i overlooked something obvious?
