Hi All,

I am getting started with Yocto project and I am curious regarding the
need for packages libegl1-mesa, libsdl1.2-dev and xterm are mentioned
as
part of "Build Host Packages" in yocto overview doc 
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/3.0/brief-yoctoprojectqs/brief-yoctoprojectqs.html#brief-build-system-packages
. I am doing yocto development on a headless Ubuntu 18.04 and in from
my limited knowledge think these packages should not really be needed
for build.

I would appreciate if anyone can point the necessity of these packages
or how to go ahead find out if these packages are actually needed or
not. Also I am willing to update doc in case these are optional
packages.

Thanks,
Deepak
