* Add a note to INHERIT, INHERIT_DISTRO, IMAGE_CLASSES and USER_CLASSES
variable glossary entries mentioning where the specified classes must
be located. I contemplated adding the same note to PACKAGE_CLASSES
but decided against it, as it has a very specific usage and such a
note might distract from the narrative of that entry.

A few occurences appeared between the time the original patch was sent
and it was applied, this fixes it.
Also, the original patch didn't take into account lowercase terms, this
is now fixed, see module_autoload for example.
Finally, as is often the case with regexp, there was a typo in it that
didn't make it match as much as it should have.
The script that is used to do the replacement of ``FOO`` by :term:`FOO`
is the following Python code:
import re
from pathlib import Path
from runpy import run_module
import contextlib
import io
import sys
re_term = re.compile(r'variables.html#term-([a-zA-Z_0-9]*)')
terms = []
new_terms = set()
with contextlib.redirect_stdout(io.StringIO()) as f:
run_module('sphinx.ext.intersphinx', run_name='__main__')
objects = f.getvalue()
match = re_term.search(objects)
while match:
if match.group(1):
terms.append(match.group(1))
match = re_term.search(objects, match.end())
for rst in Path('.').rglob('*.rst'):
with open(rst, 'r') as f:
content = "".join(f.readlines())
for term in terms:
content = re.sub(r'``({})``(?!.*\s+[~=-]{{{:d},}})'.format(term, len(term)), r':term:`\1`', content)
with open(rst, 'w') as f:
f.write(content)
This script takes one argument as input: an objects.inv. Bitbake's can
be gotten from https://docs.yoctoproject.org/bitbake/objects.inv. The
objetcs.inv from the current git repo can be gotten from
documentation/_build/html/objetcs.inv after running `make html`.
Note that this excludes from replacement terms that appear in section
titles as it requires refs to be changed too. This can be automated too
if need be but right now it looks a bit confusing to have an anchor link
(for sections) also have a term/reference link in it. I am not sure this
is desired today.
This is the result of two runs of the aforementioned script, once with
Bitbake objects.inv and once with this repo's.

Many of the internal links were not converted probably from DocBook
using pandoc. After looking at the various patterns, the follow series
of 'naive' Python regexp were used to perform some additional
automatic conversion.
Also, since we rely on built-in glossary, all links to terms need to
use the sphinx :term: syntax.

This commit is autogenerated pandoc to generate an inital set
of reST files based on DocBook XML files.
A .rst file is generated for each .xml files in all manuals with this
command:
cd <manual>
for i in *.xml; do \
pandoc -f docbook -t rst --shift-heading-level-by=-1 \
$i -o $(basename $i .xml).rst \
done
The conversion was done with: pandoc 2.9.2.1-91 (Arch Linux).
Also created an initial top level index file for each document, and
added all 'books' to the top leve index.rst file.
The YP manuals layout is organized as:
Book
Chapter
Section
Section
Section
Sphinx uses section headers to create the document structure.
ReStructuredText defines sections headers like that:
To break longer text up into sections, you use section headers. These
are a single line of text (one or more words) with adornment: an
underline alone, or an underline and an overline together, in dashes
"-----", equals "======", tildes "~~~~~~" or any of the
non-alphanumeric characters = - ` : ' " ~ ^ _ * + # < > that you feel
comfortable with. An underline-only adornment is distinct from an
overline-and-underline adornment using the same character. The
underline/overline must be at least as long as the title text. Be
consistent, since all sections marked with the same adornment style
are deemed to be at the same level:
Let's define the following convention when converting from Docbook:
Book => overline === (Title)
Chapter => overline *** (1.)
Section => ==== (1.1)
Section => ---- (1.1.1)
Section => ~~~~ (1.1.1.1)
Section => ^^^^ (1.1.1.1.1)
During the conversion with pandoc, we used --shift-heading-level=-1 to
convert most of DocBook headings automatically. However with this
setting, the Chapter header was removed, so I added it back
manually. Without this setting all headings were off by one, which was
more difficult to manually fix.
At least with this change, we now have the same TOC with Sphinx and
DocBook.
