It may warrant a mini-section of its own which we can at least point to from the "writing a new recipe" section of the dev manual. 55365 1 srifenbark 2015-10-15 17:34:59 +0000 Hi, After consulting with Paul here, I have placed a couple notes in the "Writing a New Recipe" section of the dev-manual to try and address this situation. It seemed best to mention the issue in both the configuration and compilation areas. Please look things over here and comment. http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#new-recipe-configuring-the-recipe http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#new-recipe-compilation Another sort of related issue I found was the mis-use of a class name for the pkgconfig.bbclass reference section. I made a small correction in the opening sentence of that entry to properly identify the class. http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.0/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#ref-classes-pkgconfig Let me know if this solution will be okay.
