    <thetext>We should have detailed documentation about what each generic task does in Yocto. These tasks do not include tasks especially designed for certain packages.

Having this documentation would make it easier for Yocto users to debug certain failures and better understand the build process.</thetext>

    <thetext>This should mostly be covered by the newly added &quot;A Closer Look at the Yocto Project Development Environment&quot; section of the reference manual; at least it does mention the task names in each section covering the related conceptual step of the build process.</thetext>

    <thetext>I agree.  I think that new chapter in the reference manual covers this information.  

Look at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#closer-look and see if this is adequate to cover this bug.  BTW - this section will continue to evolve.

    <thetext>The &apos;Bitbake&apos; subsection from the &apos;A closer look&apos; section does cover my request. Marking it as VERIFIED.</thetext>
