The default DISTRO_FEATURES includes x11, so that's where it's coming from. If you're using oe-core/poky from git master, you can do DISTRO_FEATURES_remove="x11" in your configuration, or else you'll need to set DISTRO_FEATURES to the current value, minus x11. The order of messages is a bit backwards there - nothing provides core-image-gtk-directfb because the recipe caused itself to be skipped. To be honest I'm not sure why that recipe forces itself to be skipped if x11 is present - it should work with x11 present - but if you're not using X then it makes sense to remove it from DISTRO_FEATURES so that you don't get unusable X dependences in your images.
