Scott Rifenbark ed0a240e16 documentation: Rename of poky-ref-manual folder to ref-manual.
Changing the folder that holds the YP Reference Manual to be
"ref-manual".  This will help with confustion over the manual's
intended purpose.

<p>
Sometimes it can be hard to see why BitBake wants to build some other packages before a given
package you have specified.
The <code class="filename">bitbake -g targetname</code> command creates the
<code class="filename">depends.dot</code>, <code class="filename">package-depends.dot</code>,
and <code class="filename">task-depends.dot</code> files in the current directory.
These files show the package and task dependencies and are useful for debugging problems.
You can use the <code class="filename">bitbake -g -u depexp targetname</code> command to
display the results in a more human-readable form.
