YP 1.5 default kernel is 3.10. This is a change from 3.8 in
the previous release. This change affected several areas of
the documentation.
1. The BSP Guide had a crownbay BSP structure that did not
account for the new default.
2. The yocto-bsp tool output still asked for the 3.8 kernel
as the default.
3. The recipes-bsp section had 3.8 used and had some bad
listings that had to be changed.
4. The recipes-graphics section had 3.8 used and also had some
stuff supporting two versions of the graphics (emgd and
noemgd). I had to pull the emgd stuff.
5. There were miscellaneous spots in the dev-manual that were
referencing 3.8 as the default kernel. Particularly the
list that shows what kernel repositories we have. That needed

The information to fix this bug was very similar to some
"best practices" and "recommendations" information that was
currently buried in a section that described how to create a
layer. So, since the new information for this bug fix increased
the amount of information significantly, I have pulled out the
existing "recommendations" and "best practices" information and
combined it with this new information and placed it in its
own section dedicated to just that. The information still
resides in the main section that introduces and discusses
layers and their creation.
This is a first draft of the section. It is under review.

The main changes are captured in a new section devoted to the
oe-init-build-env-memres script within the ref-structure.xml
file and in the variables.xml file in a BBSERVER variable entry
in the glossary.
All other changes were necessary to integrate the new functionality
into areas where running the setup script are discussed. Before
this feature, there was a single setup script (oe-init-build-env).
Consequently, wordings and such were designed exclusively for this
single method. With the introduction of a second possible method
to initialize the build environment, tweaks to many sections were
needed. Beside the wording tweaks, appropriate cross-referencing
was also needed.
All these changes cover the integration of the new feature.

Fixes [YOCTO #4912]
Throughout the manual set, various areas talk about the Linux
distributions we support and the required packages among other
items that are tied to a distro. Debian had been missing except
from the list in the ref-manual that shows the releases we test
against.
I have attended to all areas where Debian needs to be mentioned
now.

Did some word-smithing to work around a false statement that
implied externalsrc.bbclass needed to be inherited on a
recipe-by-recipe basis. This affected the usage section and
the glossary definitions for both EXTERNALSRC and EXTERNALSRC_BUILD.
Also updated the "B" variable description to be more accurate
in the use of the term "Build Directory."

The URL naming convention for the YP Release Notes has changed.
It now takes the following form:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yoctoproject-15-poky-1000
The above is an example for YP Release 1.5 and poky release 10.0.0.
I have set up three new variables in the poky.ent file to somewhat
automate the links in the docs to point to the location of a given
set of release notes:
1. DISTRO_COMPRESSED - set to the DISTRO string with no period
(e.g 15 for 1.5).
2. POKYVERSION_COMPRESSED - set to the poky version with no
periods (e.g. 1000 for 10.0.0).
3. YOCTO_RELEASE_NOTES - set to the full-blown release note
URL.
I made two changes to existing links for the Release Notes. One
was in the dev-manual and one was in the ref-manual.
