* ref-manual: Fixed SRC_URI cut-and-paste error.Filip Jareš2019-03-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The update fixes a copy-paste-and-forget-to-update-everything error in the documentation of the `SRC_URI` entry in the Reference Manual. The `maxdate` paragraph just repeated what is there for the neighboring `mindate` paragraph which was incorrect.

* YP Documentation: Updated host package listsScott Rifenbark2019-03-191-39/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Changes to the lists resulted in the testing and graphics & Eclipse Plug-in lists going away.

* ref-manual, poky.ent: Updated essential host packagesScott Rifenbark2019-03-191-27/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #13196] The set of host packages for the testing has been merged into the essential set of packages for all supported distros. I updated the variables defined in "poky.ent" so that these packages are now part of the essentials. I also removed the section on the required packages for testing.

* ref-manual: Removed DISTRO_FEATURES_LIBC variableScott Rifenbark2019-03-191-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Took this out of the glossary. After eglibc was merged into glibc, Kconfig support was also dropped so these libc features therefore are not effective anymore and can be removed.

Using this form causes the mega-manual.sed file to not process the link correctly for the mega-manual. These are subtle errors and have probably existed for some time.
