YOCTO #1088: documentation - Added text to partially address package bug

2011-09-02T22:38:52+00:00

This bug was filed by Gary Thomas and was requesting more information on the "hows" and "whys" of setting up your own package repositories. At this point, I have added information to help the user understand build performance issues when choosing between the RPM and IPKG packaging systems. Likely, there is more that needs to be added to fully address this bug. For now, I added explanations in the packaging class and glossary areas of the YP reference manual, a new paragraph in the YP QS just prior to firing off a build, and a new bit of information in the configuring PMS in the ADT Manual.

documentation/poky-ref-manual: Removed "spitz" machine example.

2011-08-30T16:27:39+00:00

This machine is out of date. I replaced both occurences with "qemux86", which is more relevant to YP. (From yocto-docs rev: 8fe6feccc25f594a444b5177d1192899b3cbdd9c) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

YOCTO #910 - documentation/poky-ref-manual/extendpoky.xml: point to dev manual.

2011-08-30T16:27:37+00:00

There is a section in the YP ref manual that gives reference type information on adding a machine. This type of information is detailed well in the BSP example appendix in the development manual. I don't want to completely eliminate the information in the YP ref manual as is suggested by the 910 bug. I think referencing it in the dev manual for now works.

documentation/poky-ref-manual/resources.xml: re-write for today's world.

2011-08-30T16:27:36+00:00

This chapter was quite old as it had not been touched since the original Poky Handbook days. I re-wrote the sub-sections with today in mind. (From yocto-docs rev: e59bede734a8fe3e9b41698e2b42ba487ec80595) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

documentation/poky-ref-manual/faq.xml: Scrubbed for term Poky.

2011-08-30T16:27:36+00:00

In general, the term Poky can be replaced by "the Yocto Project." The term Poky can be used as a term for the Yocto Project build system. I left it in place for a few areas where it was easy and would not be confusing. I also performed general rewrites for the FAQ.

docuementation/poky-ref-manual/ref-structure.xml: Changed SRCDATE reference

2011-08-25T02:59:55+00:00

I was incorrectly referring to SRCDATE variables in a context that should have been SRCDATE destinations. (From yocto-docs rev: eb255d9369b5bb3905a586433d472fd100c737dc) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
