Turns out the 'dnf' command is not yet supported for CentOS
as it is for Fedora, I changed the 'dnf' command back to
'yum'. Also, there were some essential packages that needed
to be added to CentOS. Finally, there was a slight
inconsistency in the Fedora list of essential packages and the
ones for supporting Graphics. I had a redundant listing of
one of the packages. I took that out of the Graphics area and
left it only in the essentials area.

This was a complete re-write of the YP Quick Start in an attempt
to streamline it, remove unecessary detail, and make it flow better
with the examples. In doing so, many manuals were affected due to
section headings being renamed, information being moved, etc. Here
is a list of the changes by manual:
Makefile - Removed two figures from TARFILE list for the
yocto-project-qs.
Added building-an-image.png to the ref-manual TARFILE list.
Added using-a-pre-build-image.png to the adt-manual TARFILE
list.
Repositioned 'eclipse' in the adt-manual TARFILE list.
adt-manual: Fixed a cross-reference so that it goes to the new
'Building Images' section that is within the YP QS.
Added new section 'Example Using Pre-Build Binaries and
QEMU' to hold the information that was formerly in YP QS.
dev-manual: Removed a cross-reference into the YP QS that promised how
to configure the most efficent build.
Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'The Packages'
to 'The Build System Packages'.
Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Building an
Image' to 'Building Images'.
Changed a text reference from the YP QS to the adt-manual.
Moved the bit about getting YP files by using the YP website
from the YP QS to the dev-manual.
Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'Using Pre-Built
Binaries and QEMU' to 'Example Using Pre-built Binaries and
QEMU', which was moved to the adt-manual.
ref-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You
Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto Project'.
Moved the note about if your system has oss4-dev in the
packages area in the YP QS to the appropriate area in the
ref-manual.
Moved the introduction information regarding building an image
along with the figure from YP QS to the ref-manual's section on
building images.
toaster-manual: Changed a cross-reference into the YP QS from 'What You
Need and How You Get It' to 'Setting Up to Use the Yocto
Project'.
yocto-project-qs: Complete rewrite that changed many section headings and
removed much detail, which was placed in other manuals.

Once again... having to try and match what is done by the release
team. I think going forward we will use this form for

Added information to note when it is used (insane.bbclass) and only
if the recipe inherits the autotools.bbclass.

Added a new step to the "Working With Your Own Sources" section
so that the user is aware of needing to provide a defconfig file
or configuration fragments to the SRC_URI variable when working
with the yocto-linux-custom.bb recipe.

The customization layers were pointing to Sourceforge site for the
XSl files needed to build the manuals. Throuhgout time, this site
has failed me enough to warrent trying to get these XSL files from
some other source. Rather than ship the XSL files with the YP release,
we decided to create some mirrors and point the customization files
there.

I added the new section "Using an "In-Tree" defconfig File"
section. This section addresses the ability to not use the
default location for defconfig files, which is usually in the
metadata layer. The section describes how to use the
KBUILD_DEFCONFIG variable.

The "Configuring the Kernel" section did not address "defconfig"
files. In my opinion, this is a hole in the docs for this section.
I added a new section titled "Creating a defconfig File" that is a
sub-section of the "Configuring the Kernel" section.
Additionally, I added a brief sentence in the introductory paragraph
to include the fact that this new information exists.
Finally, I included the bitbake command that ensures that the
proper configuration steps are minimally run before a user attempts
to use bitbake to get into menuconfig.

The "Generating Configuration Files" section has a procedure that
starts with a step to complete a build at least through the
kernel configuration task. This is needed but we could use a
bit of explanation here. I added some rationale behind why you
should do this.

This variable has been deprecated a while and Paul Eggleton suggested
we finally remove it from the glossary. I removed it and also
took away the two links from where the variable was referenced
in a couple spots in the migration section.

This section needed some more information. It referenced the yocto-kernel
script and menuconfig. I added references to the appropriate areas of
YP documentation for these. I also changed wordings to that it is
apparent that .config is created by menuconfig when changes are saved.

The way to include tcf-agent now in an image that you are going to
remotely deploy and debug using the Eclipse IDE is to simply include
the eclipse-debug image feature as part of the image. I updated the
section around getting images to reflect this simple method.

Fixed [YOCTO #7632]
Looked for, updated, and added (if necessary) the following
variables:
* ROOTFS_PREPROCESS_COMMAND
* ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND
* SDK_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND
* POPULATE_SDK_POST_TARGET_COMMAND
* POPULATE_SDK_POST_HOST_COMMAND,
* IMAGE_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND
* IMAGE_PREPROCESS_COMMAND
* ROOTFS_POSTUNINSTALL_COMMAND
* ROOTFS_POSTINSTALL_COMMAND
Each of these variables no longer accepts arbitrary shell commands but
rather functions. The wordings now support that behavior.
Also, updated the migration section for going to 1.6 release to note
this change.

I applied a little more information to this section to help
round out the variable explanations. Part of the change involved
adding PARALLEL_MAKEINST to the list of scaled variables.
I had left that variable off. Also added a new trade-off.

I updated both the PARALLEL_MAKE and PARALLEL_MAKEINST variables
by expanding the note to indicate how to prohibit parallel make
threads. Also, added a cross-referencing link to the
"Debugging Parallel Make Races" section.
I added a short note to the start of the "Debugging Parallel Make
Races" section noting that if they can't properly fix the condition,
they can always do a work-around to set the PARALLEL_MAKE or
PARALLEL_MAKEINST variables to null.
