2013-10-01T21:52:55+00:00

This list evidently is not quite ready so I put it back to its orginal form with a couple of commented out lines in there for some distros that might be part of the list. (From yocto-docs rev: 3ace1c2e54675de72538742bc9920c5acbe36e8b) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual, ref-manual, yocto-project-qs: Debian support added

2013-08-13T12:18:57+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #4912] Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux distributions we support and the required packages among other items that are tied to a distro. Debian had been missing except from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test against. I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned now.

2013-08-13T12:18:46+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #4927] Updated the wording to specifically point out that YP does not support rolling releases or developmental releases due to their constantly changing nature. I did not include wording to indicate planned or unplanned type of futuristic support.

ref-manual: Removed link to wiki page for tested distros.

2013-08-13T12:18:44+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #4911] This bug's comments determined that the link from the "Supported Distributions" section to the wiki page that shows a list of tested distros be removed. The wiki page has been updated to link into the section of manual and the wiki page states that it is out of date. So, the manual should not point back to that wiki page.
