Subject: what are the *required* variables for defining a new distro?
Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2014 05:52:11 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.11.1408040548310.4162@localhost> (raw)
i asked about this on OE list but since this affects the yocto dev
manual, i thought i'd ask here as well as i can fold the result into
another doc patch.
section 5.10 of dev manual:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#creating-your-own-distribution
claims:
Your [new distro] configuration file needs to set the following
required variables:
DISTRO_NAME
DISTRO_VERSION
i don't think that's true -- i don't think it's *required* for a
distro conf file to set DISTRO_NAME. can someone verify what variables
are mandatory for a new distro configuration file?
