From 003d869116cb4a80360d34c6b2a2c15636689c82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Scott Rifenbark Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2017 15:21:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ref-manual: Updated PACKAGECONFIG_CONFARGS variable description Fixes [YOCTO #11600] "configure" and "cmake" are not do_* tasks of BitBake. I updated the formatting of these programs and removed links that were to the tasks in the reference manual.
