2015-05-03ref-manual; mega-manual: Edits to further define packaging processScott Rifenbark
In response to community input where developers were attempting to locate information on how to write packages out to a directory other than ${DEPLOY_DIR}/<package_type>, I updated the "Package Feeds" section, added several new DEPLOY_DIR_* variables, updated four classes, and updated four tasks. Here are some details: * Made changes to the "Package Feeds" section to provide more accurate information in the package feeds directory structure used by the build system in build/tmp. These changes included updating the figure itself and some explanatory text. * Updated the DEPLOY_DIR variable description. * Added new variable descriptions for DEPLOY_DIR_DEB, DEPLOY_DIR_IPK, DEPLOY_DIR_RPM, and DEPLOY_DIR_TAR. * Updated the related classes: package_deb, package_ipk, package_rpm, and package_tar. * Updated the related tasks: do_package_write_deb, do_package_write_ipk, do_package_write_rpm, and do_package_write_tar.

2014-10-18ref-manual: Scrubbed for variable (user) input.Scott Rifenbark
