Re: couple questions about cleaning up the Quick Start Guide


Rifenbark, Scott M <scott.m.rifenbark@...>
 

Robert,

Thanks for the stuff and the look here. Regarding your first point - I don't have a problem using the real link over the redirect. The only things that come to mind are if they work why change them? But, if the community wants the downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases URL in there I can certainly go in and make changes to master.

On the second point - you are absolutely correct here. I will fix that in master to reflect where the tarball really is. I think as the project moves forward there will be more consistency. Early life jitters I guess :)

Thanks for your input.

Scott

Subject: [yocto] couple questions about cleaning up the Quick Start Guide


perusing the QS guide in prep for giving a yocto talk this week to
my local LUG and some cosmetic changes i can submit a patch for:

1) www.yoctoproject.org/downloads clearly redirects to
downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases these days. any objection
to my just changing the former references to the latter throughout
the QS guide?

2) there's a reference to the edison tarball

http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/poky/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

but there's no such tarball, it's at

http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/yocto-1.1/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

although *older* tarballs are under the "downloads" directory.
what's the proper directory location for this stuff? can it be made
consistent? thanks.
