There was inconsistent use of the way directory names were
handled throughout the YP documentation. I have scrubbed the
set and replaced many instances such as the following:
meta/<something> replaces /meta/<something>
poky replaces ~/poky (except in some very specific examples)
I basically got rid of leading slash characters.

should appear any different than "Notes" or "Tips", which look
fine. I could not devise a .css solution so I tricked the

Changes partially address this issue, which is the removal of
tarball installations for poky. The notes at the beginning of
the YP manuals suggested that the tarball version of a manual
might lag the version found on the website. Because we are
discouraging installing poky/documentation from a tarball now,
I have re-written the note to be generic and suggest simply that
for the most recent version of the manual associated with the
release, see the manual on the website.
