dev-manual/packages.rst: fix example recipe version

2026-02-12T17:00:10+00:00

The example recipe taken above is hello-world on version 1.0 (because PV equals "1.0+git". Fix this issue.

dev-manual/packages.rst: rename r0.0 to r0 when PR server is not enabled

2026-02-12T17:00:10+00:00

When we don't have a PR server enabled, we don't have leading ".0" to the PKGR variable, as this is added by the PR server.

dev-manual/packages.rst: pr server: fix and explain why r0.X increments on SRCREV change

2026-02-12T17:00:10+00:00

The current example of the SRCREV change triggering a gitX bump is wrong, as both gitX and r0.X get incremented. Why this is happening is explained in bug 15729, which I copy here: > +gitX+ is indeed related to changes in the source code. > > r0.X is bumped each time the checksum of the do_package task of the > simple-hello-world-git recipe changes. This happens here: > https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/classes-global/package.bbclass?id=235e6d49e5888ad04416219e10b6df91a738661a#n306 > > This line sets the value of PRAUTO and represents the number X found in > r0.X. It will in the end make it into EXTENDPRAUTO, which itself makes > to PKGR == r0.X. > > This line calls getPR(version, pkgarch, checksum). Between test case 5 > and 6, only the checksum changes. This checksum is the checksum of the > do_package task (gotten from get_do_package_hash() above). > > Now, let's dump what changed with regards to this task between two > consecutive runs, using the sigdata file in build/tmp/stamps/: > > ``` > [...] > Variable fetcher_hashes_dummyfunc value changed from '2650ad6714c3f3248abfe9d3daf1196f307ed494' to '4af682a50174f5deb0397847da97d7cdba4ad067' > ``` > > The last line shows that the value of fetcher_hashes_dummyfunc changed > from '2650ad6714c3f3248abfe9d3daf1196f307ed494' to > '4af682a50174f5deb0397847da97d7cdba4ad067'. Those are the commit hashes > in the git history of the simple-hello-world-git repository. > > Now you can see why this 0.X gets bumped, is because of the SRCREV change. Fix the example, and detail what gets changed and why.

sdk-manual: appendix-obtain: fix default path for eSDK installer script

2026-02-10T13:11:48+00:00

The eSDK installer script installs in poky_sdk directory but under the user's home directory so let's make that explicit.

sdk-manual: using: fix SDK filename example

2026-02-10T13:11:48+00:00

I'm pretty sure we meant to use the DISTRO poky.yaml.in placeholder which can only be replaced when surrounding by & and ; characters. Therefore let's fix this oversight. Also, the example isn't actually pointing at the snapshot, but the actual release, so let's reword that as well so it matches the example. I decided to do that instead of adding +snapshot to the filename because the example in the next section is actually using that same filename so for consistency it seemed more appropriate.

sdk-manual: appendix-obtain: use parsed-literal block for naming convention of the installer scripts

2026-02-10T13:11:48+00:00

It's easier on the eye to use a parsed-literal block for highlighting things that must be changed than simply stating the word, so this makes use of a parsed-literal block instead of a simple inline code-block and also highlight in italic which words are placeholders. Also make the explanation below the literal-block use the same highlighting (italic).
