Changing the folder that holds the YP Reference Manual to be "ref-manual". This will help with confustion over the manual's intended purpose.

Each target BitBake builds consists of multiple tasks such as
|
||
<code class="filename">fetch</code>, <code class="filename">unpack</code>,
|
||
<code class="filename">patch</code>, <code class="filename">configure</code>,
|
||
and <code class="filename">compile</code>.
|
||
For best performance on multi-core systems, BitBake considers each task as an independent
|
||
entity with its own set of dependencies.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Dependencies are defined through several variables.
|
||
You can find information about variables BitBake uses in the BitBake documentation,
|
||
which is found in the <code class="filename">bitbake/doc/manual</code> directory within the
|
||
<a class="link" href="../dev-manual/source-directory.html" target="_self">Source Directory</a>.
|
||
At a basic level, it is sufficient to know that BitBake uses the
|
||
<code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-DEPENDS" title="DEPENDS">DEPENDS</a></code> and
|
||
<code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-RDEPENDS" title="RDEPENDS">RDEPENDS</a></code> variables when
|
||
calculating dependencies.
