Re: [yocto] which is the *official* yocto "download" page?
as one more data point to suggest that the URLs to yocto pages need some kind of reorg, toward the bottom of section 2.2 in the dev manual, one reads: "Tarball Extraction: You can download any released BSP tarball from the same download site used to get the Yocto Project release." the link under "download site" is http://www.yoctoproject.org/download which, again because of redirection, takes you here: https://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yocto-project-13-poky-80 which is definitely inappropriate since that has nothing to do with BSPs. for a number of these things, there appear to be two types of URLs. in the case of BSPs, there's both of: https://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/bsp http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/yocto-1.3/machines/ the latter obviously representing the earlier BSP download page before the yocto web site had a total makeover. the same can be said for the "tools" download page -- which of these two is it? https://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/tools http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/tools/ just looking for consistency. rday -- Robert P.

[yocto] which is the *official* yocto "download" page?
the poky.ent file in the docs defines this: http://downloads.yoctoproject.org";> while elsewhere (but i don't remember where) this is described as the downloads page: https://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads which does not take you to the same place. and just to add to the confusion, the current dev manual contains (in section 2.2): "Tarball Extraction: If you are not going to contribute back into the Yocto Project, you can simply download a Yocto Project release you want from the website’s download page." where the link is http://www.yoctoproject.org/download, which redirects you here: https://www.yoctoproject.org/download/yocto-project-13-poky-80 so that's three different "download" pages so far. rday p.s. IMHO, any reference to a generic "download" page should take you to a single top-level download URL *under* which all downloads and downloading info can be found. it should *not* take you to a sub-page of, say, poky tarballs, unless the link specifically *says* it's to the download directory of poky tarballs. i refer, of course, to that third example above.___ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
