* Documentation: Prepare for 2.6.1 release.Scott Rifenbark2018-12-271-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Updated the following: * poky.ent to use new variables values for 2.6.1 * mega-manual.sed to use "2.6.1" string for links * *.xml manual files to have a new entry in the manual history tables. Using the variable for the most recent entry. Hard-coded "November 2018" for the previous release, which was "2.6".

* documentation: Changed section title for required packages.Scott Rifenbark2018-08-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The title needs to use the terminology "Build Host" to be consistent with the manual set. I updated the title and the many links into that section.

* dev-manual: Moved the "Simple Build" sectionScott Rifenbark2018-05-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | I had a section on building an image up in chapter that talks about getting set up to use YP. I moved the build section to a new parent section that will hold topics on building various things. I renamed the section to "Building a Simple Image". I had to fix several links in the sdk-manual, overview-manual, and dev-manual.

| | | | | | | | | | | | The section on licensing in the overview-manual was really "how-to" information. I moved this to a new section in the dev-manual for "working with licenses". I fixed some references in the ref-manual and in the bsp-guide as well.
