Richard Purdie a9aa1d24c7 bitbake: data: Fix whitespace on _remove operations
We have some slightly odd behaviours with the current implementation of
_remove operations. For example:

TEST = " A B"
TEST_remove = "C"

would trigger TEST to become "A B" even thought it doesn't contain "C".

In particular, this means that an inactive remove operator added in a
bbappend could change the task checksum which is not desireable.

Fix the operation to preserve whitespace, adding new tests to make this
explict and test further corner cases. Also update the manual to match.

Documentation

This is the directory that contains the BitBake documentation.

Manual Organization

Folders exist for individual manuals as follows:

  • bitbake-user-manual - The BitBake User Manual

Each folder is self-contained regarding content and figures.

If you want to find HTML versions of the BitBake manuals on the web, go to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Documentation.

Makefile

The Makefile processes manual directories to create HTML, PDF, tarballs, etc. Details on how the Makefile work are documented inside the Makefile. See that file for more information.

To build a manual, you run the make command and pass it the name of the folder containing the manual's contents. For example, the following command run from the documentation directory creates an HTML and a PDF version of the BitBake User Manual. The DOC variable specifies the manual you are making:

 $ make DOC=bitbake-user-manual

template

Contains various templates, fonts, and some old PNG files.

tools

Contains a tool to convert the DocBook files to PDF format.
