manuals: propose https for SSTATE_MIRRORS

2022-02-03T13:47:50+00:00

Both http and https work, but https should raise fewer questions from users. (From yocto-docs rev: e3bf892b1328b5c43ab041ba6c850e2782f54bdf) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: replace "apt-get" by "apt"

2021-10-08T21:01:24+00:00

Modern Debian based distros (such as Ubuntu) now use "apt" instead of "apt-get" Also make sure "apt" is invoked with root privileges (mandatory) (From yocto-docs rev: 380ef2474f3ecc2bce83f11cd838d054bef56d22) Signed-off-by: Michael Opdenacker Reviewed-by: Quentin Schulz Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: simplify references to BitBake manual

2021-07-30T21:49:15+00:00

Replacing ":ref:`section name:section name>`" by ":ref:`bitbake:bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-

:section name`" when the reference description is the same as the section name. In this case, that's unnecessary to repeat the section name in the description part.

docs: replace ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO` where possible

2021-06-19T15:54:01+00:00

If a variable has a glossary entry and some rST files write about those variables, it's better to point to the glossary entry instead of just highlighting it by surrounding it with two tick quotes. This was automated by the following python script: """ import re from pathlib import Path with open('objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f: objects = f.readlines() with open('bitbake-objects.inv.txt', 'r') as f: objects = objects + f.readlines() re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([A-Z_0-9]*)') terms = [] for obj in objects: match = re_term.search(obj) if match and match.group(1): terms.append(match.group(1)) for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'): with open(rst, 'r') as f: content = "".joing(f.readlines()) for term in terms: content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s*[~-]+)'.format(term), r':term:`\1`', content) with open(rst, 'w') as f: f.write(content) """ (From yocto-docs rev: ba49d9babfcb84bc5c26a68c8c3880a1d9c236d3) Signed-off-by: Quentin Schulz Reviewed-by: Michael Opdenacker Reviewed-by: Nicolas Dechesne Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

Use variables for minimum host versions and bump Python to 3.6

2021-04-15T19:18:57+00:00

Minimum Git, tar, Python and gcc versions are specified in quite a few different places. Let's add some variables for these so there's no chance of missing one if they're updated in future. Additionally, for hardknott the minimum Python version is 3.6 so set that as the value for Python.
