| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #5931] Added descriptions for the following variables in the glossary: * MODULE_IMAGE_BASE_NAME * KERNEL_IMAGE_BASE_NAME * PKGE * PKGV * PKGR * PKG The first two are for the bug. The remainder needed to be added as they were referenced from the first two (except for PKG, which I was told needed to be added anyway. I also fixed a couple formatting issues in there for some other variables.

* ref-manual: Edits to "Understanding What the Build History Contains" section.Scott Rifenbark2014-03-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The opening sentence here said that the build history is kept in the $TMPDIR/buildhistory directory in the Build Directory as defined by the BUILDHISTORY_DIR variable. Well, the variable claims it is kept in $TOPDIR/buildhistory. I went with the variable as the correct source. So, I changed the intro sentence here.
