Description Jose Perez C 2016-08-23 19:06:17 UTC
Currently the Quick Start and Mega Manual have the below this statement  "Python 2.7.3 or greater not including Python 3.x, which is not supported.", this should be updated as now Python 3.4 is supported.

Hi, 

Thanks for noting these spots.  I have corrected the two you found and an additional one in the FAQ appendix.  Here are the links to the newly compiled mega-manual:

 * http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#the-linux-distro.  This is the reference in the YP Quick Start.

 * http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#required-git-tar-and-python-versions.  This is the correction in the early chapter of the YP Reference Manual.

 * http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.2/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#faq. This is the one in the FAQ entry 31.2.

Of course I changed these items in the originating manuals so that when the mega-manual is compiled the changes are reflected there as well.

No further feedback.  Setting to RESOLVED and putting the doc flag to "done."
