1470 The path to unpacked sources. 1470 The location in the <ulink url='http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#yocto-project-build-directory'>
1471 By default, this path is as follows: 1471 Yocto Project Build Directory</ulink> where unpacked package source code resides.
1472 This location is within the working directory
1473 (<filename><link linkend='var-WORKDIR'>WORKDIR</link></filename>), which
1474 is not static.
1475 The unpacked source location depends on the package name
1476 (<filename><link linkend='var-PN'>PN</link></filename>) and
1477 package version (<filename><link linkend='var-PV'>PV</link></filename>) as
1478 follows:
1472 <literallayout class='monospaced'> 1479 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1473 ${<link linkend='var-WORKDIR'>WORKDIR</link>}/${<link linkend='var-PN'>PN</link>}-${<link linkend='var-PV'>PV</link>} 1480 ${WORKDIR}/${PN}-${PV}
1481 </literallayout>
1482 As an example, assume a
1483 <ulink url='http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#yocto-project-files'>
1484 Yocto Project Files</ulink> top-level directory named <filename>poky</filename>
1485 and a default Yocto Project Build Directory of <filename>poky/build</filename>.
1486 In this case, the working directory the build system uses to build
1487 the <filename>db</filename> package is the following:
1488 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1489 ~/poky/build/tmp/work/qemux86-poky-linux/db-5.1.19-r3/db-5.1.19
