ref-manual; mega-manual: Edits to further define packaging process

2015-05-03T10:49:38+00:00

In response to community input where developers were attempting to locate information on how to write packages out to a directory other than ${DEPLOY_DIR}/, I updated the "Package Feeds" section, added several new DEPLOY_DIR_* variables, updated four classes, and updated four tasks. Here are some details: * Made changes to the "Package Feeds" section to provide more accurate information in the package feeds directory structure used by the build system in build/tmp. These changes included updating the figure itself and some explanatory text. * Updated the DEPLOY_DIR variable description. * Added new variable descriptions for DEPLOY_DIR_DEB, DEPLOY_DIR_IPK, DEPLOY_DIR_RPM, and DEPLOY_DIR_TAR. * Updated the related classes: package_deb, package_ipk, package_rpm, and package_tar. * Updated the related tasks: do_package_write_deb, do_package_write_ipk, do_package_write_rpm, and do_package_write_tar.

ref-manual: Updated the "Image Features" section

2015-05-03T10:49:38+00:00

Removed the requirement that debug-tweaks is needed in order to individually use the allow-empty-passowrk, empty-root-password, and post-install-logging features. These three features can be individually turned on an off regardless of debug-tweaks.

dev-manual: Updates to add Luna support for Eclipse

2015-05-03T10:49:38+00:00

Adding Luna and dropping Juno. Pretty much went through the "Working With Eclipse" section and dropped Juno and added Luna. A major deletion was the BitBake Commander section using Hob. Todor told me to drop this section completely. Note that I also added a couple new YoctoProjectTools that appear on the menu: SystemTap and yocto-bsp.

ref-manual: Updated the ELF Binary QA warning message

2015-04-28T15:31:00+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7630] I applied some feedback from Laszlo Papp suggesting that the user can also use '-fpic' as well as '-fPIC' for a command-line option. (From yocto-docs rev: 750ff4d3203f358595df8d10cc57e8d63a9fef4a) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

dev-manual; ref-manual: Fixed ‐ issue

2015-04-28T15:31:00+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7386] Apparently the "‐" ENTITY used throughout the YP manual set to get literal "-" characters in example commands renders into a unicode that is not a dash. This results in users getting errors if they attempt to cut-and-paste a sample command that uses a "-" character from the manual into a shell. I have universally replaced all the "‐" strings in the YP manual set to "-" strings.

2015-04-24T10:07:50+00:00

Fixes [YOCTO #7630] Apparently the text relocation being done here can cause runtime performance issues. I documented a potential work-around for the issue and provided a cross-reference link to an external site for more general information about text relocation at runtime.
