Paul, I can fix the manual to say something like this...
"# We have recipe-* directories, add to BBFILES" Will that work? -----Original Message----- From: yocto-boun...@yoctoproject.org [mailto:yocto-boun...@yoctoproject.org] On Behalf Of Paul Eggleton Sent: Sunday, August 12, 2012 6:14 AM To: Trevor Woerner Cc: yocto@yoctoproject.org Subject: Re: [yocto] layer.conf: "packages" directory On Sunday 12 August 2012 08:34:36 Trevor Woerner wrote: > Hi, > > In the Yocto Project Development Manual, section 4.1.2 "Creating Your > Own Layer" it shows an example layer.conf file.
