* ref-manual/yocto-project-supported-features: add ppc maintainersAdrian Freihofer4 days1-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PowerPC (32-bit) remains relevant for our use cases, and we aim to maintain support as long as it is feasible with reasonable effort. For transparency, our primary focus is on maintaining core-image-minimal. Support for more complex images may be limited unless additional contributors join, as ongoing testing and maintenance of these images may not be feasible otherwise.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes all :doc: directives use an absolute paths (with the root directory being documentation/ in the repo). This is then consistent across the whole source and is easier to review and move files around, you just need to know where a file is located relative to documentation/ directory and use that. This gets rid of paths looking in parent directory with '..' as well as expecting a file to be in the same directory as the other file it points to via the :doc: directive.

* requirements: move Ubuntu-20.04 into unsupported category due to pythonPaul Gortmaker2025-03-281-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bitbake commit 0d2e682d00df ("bitbake: lib/bb: Bump minimum python version requirement to 3.9" -- poky commit 67566c7410e1) means that Ubuntu 20.04 is no longer supported out-of-the-box as detailed further in the respective commit log. While it is true that it can still be used with buildtools, that can also be said for nearly every other unsupported distro out there, including Ubuntu 18.04 that we listed as unsupported some years ago. Hence continuing to list it as supported with the new python requirement in place does not make sense. So we move it alongside of the 18.04 entry, into the "possibly tested, but you get what you get" category. And add an explicit mention of the buildtools, so people have a thread to pull on.
