* documentation/poky-ref-manual/ref-variables.xml: New KMACHINE gloss entryScott Rifenbark2012-07-221-0/+88
| | | | | | | | | | Created a new glossary entry for the KMACHINE variable. I used Bruce Ashfield as my resource for understanding this variable.

* documentation: converted ref-variables-gloss to chapter.Scott Rifenbark2012-07-171-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | As part of moving the reference manual to a real reference manual I am removing the "appendix" classification and having everthing be a chapter. I changed the "ref-varibales-gloss" appendix to a chapter and made sure any references in the doc set use the proper term now (chapter).

* documentation/poky-ref-manual: Review edits on B and externalsrc.bbclassScott Rifenbark2012-03-081-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I tried to implement some comments by Richard on the B glossary entry and the externalsrc.bbclass section. The comments were a bit confusing to me but the gist of it was I mis-interpreted Richard's comments on supporting separate directories for B and S. I had indicated that autotools-based recipes did this by default, which was wrong. What was confusing to me is where the comments should be. I ended up putting them in both areas of the reference manual.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The information surrounding the central download directory was pretty scant. Jim Abernathy pointed this out in an email sent to me. As a start, I have added quite a bit more information to the glossary description for DL_DIR. Part of that added information is a pointer to the FAQ entry that describes exactly how the build system gets source files. Then, in the YP Development Manual in the section that introduces the build process, I added several references to various variables that are set in the local.conf file prior to kicking off the build.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I did complete rewrites of RDEPENDS, RRECOMMENDS, MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RDEPENDS, MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS, MACHINE_EXTRA_RDEPENDS, and MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS. These are sent out for review but these changes represent the first attempt to clear up confusion on how the six variables are used and relate to each other.
