The tip of "thud" has the section on migrating to YP 2.6. However, as pointed out, the published 2.6 manual does not have it. During a release, docs lag behind software and everything else that gets locked down. I wrote that section for the 2.6 release of the manuals. Likely, some important fix had to be back-ported to the manuals post-release and I probably was working from a cloned thud repo that was checked out on the tag "Yocto-2.6", which is earlier than the commits for that section. So, when I rebuilt manuals post-release for various reasons, it was not included. I can fix that for the 2.6 version of the manual. It is already present in the newly released 2.6.1 version of the manual. This problem is ongoing with the docs. I just recently have come up with a work-around for these types of situations. I am now keeping a local area of changed doc source files per-release for released manuals. That way, in the future, I can checkout a release by tag, make any special changes, and then populate the local repo with the previously changed files. Rebuilding then produces manuals with all the one-off changes that have occurred. - Thanks for the clarification Joshua. > 2) The second (unrelated) issue has to do with reporting 18.04 as a > supported host distro.
