2019-12-09mega-manual: Fixed broken mega-manual build for 2.7.2Scott Rifenbark
Fixes YOCTO #13553 This bug is where the mega-manual will not build because the mega-manual.xml file is looking in the wrong directory in a poky checkout such as a customer would have. It worked in my local development environment for the manuals. I fixed by updating mega-manual.xml pathname used to construct the mega-manual to look in $HOME/yocto-docs/bitbake for the HTML files that make up the mega-manual. Prior, it was looking in $HOME/bitbake. This also meant that I changed my production environment to use $HOME/yocto-docs as the folder in which to keep the local bitbake repo.
