dev-manual: update custom distribution section

2024-04-16T06:55:42+00:00

In keeping with the addition of the motd message pointing out that the poky DISTRO is a reference distribution, adjust the opening of the Creating Your Own Distribution section to match. Additionally, add a section on the end pointing out what users need to consider if they just take a copy of the poky distribution and modify it.

dev-manual: update reference to sstate-cache-management script

2024-04-16T06:55:42+00:00

* Script is now .py * In the example, we would most likely be within the build directory already, so the path would be just "sstate-cache" not "build/sstate-cache" (From yocto-docs rev: a655ef8f5fee98e55277cbd40a092fcae697cbae) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Reviewed-by: Michael Opdenacker Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

manuals: remove tab characters

2024-04-12T16:29:34+00:00

dev-manual: bmaptool: rename

2024-03-06T16:54:54+00:00

What was previously known variously as Bmaptool, bmaptools, bmap-tool, and/or bmap-tools has been updated to the singular name: bmaptool. Update all references to suit. Since we are not in charge of debian's package naming policy, any references that relate to debian package(s) will stay as "bmap-tools".

2024-03-06T16:54:54+00:00

Document the convention to use variables prefixed by VIRTUAL_RUNTIME. Add references to the new term where possible.
