Hi Scott:

 

Yes, I=E2=80=99ve been searching in the mega manual, and I=E2=80=99ve = read the section in the overview manual. The old OE Manual explanation = was more what I was looking for. It seems that has been lost somewhere = along the way. Filing a bug against the docs sounds like a good idea = =E2=80=93 I=E2=80=99m not sure how to do that.

 

Thanks.

Hi Steve,

 

Have you found the YP Overview and Concepts = Manual?  There is a fairly large section here - https://yoctoproject.or= g/docs/2.6.1/overview-manual/overview-manual.html#openembedded-build-syst= em-build-concepts that covers build concepts in some detail.  = This might help you. 

 

Another idea for finding topics in the YP manual set = is to use the YP Mega-Manual (https://yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html= ), which is a compilation of the set of YP manuals.  You can search = the entire set for terms (e.g. "packag").  It occurs a = lot in the set but it is a way to find all the occurrences. =

 

If you still cannot find satisfactory explanation on = how packages are generated, we can file a bug against the docs and get a = good explanation in there.

 

Hope this helps,

Scott
