Hi Mary/Poornima,

Master code supports layered build. When do the environment setup, developer should follow layered build guide.

While for stx 3.0, developer should follow current “development-environment-setup” page.

So I suggest to update “development-environment-setup” to add a link point to layered build guide.

Best Regards

Shuicheng

Thank you Shuicheng for the input, we appreciate your technical guidance.

Adding Poornima to the thread, as she has volunteered to work on this guide [2].

Question: a guide for Layered Build [3] already exists in the STX documentation. I don’t know the history of this guide, should it be updated or replaced?

Thanks again,

Shuicheng, thank you.  What would help the docs team out is 1) someone knowledgeable in this topic posting a doc update or 2) someone posting a rough draft of the changes to a new LP issue for the docs team.

Hi Doc/build team,

The build guide wiki [0] is out of date since latest code has been switched to layered build.

There is some major change for the step, such as you need sync code first, then download srpm/tarball.

Please help update the wiki, otherwise new guy will be blocked for the build environment setup.

BTW, before that, we could refer the commit message in [1] to figure what we need to change to setup build environment.
