manual: use one-line titles instead of two-line titles (trivial)
Asciidoc supports two syntaxes for section titles: two-line titles (title
plus underline consisting of a particular symbol), and one-line titles
(title prefixed with a specific number of = signs).
The two-line title underlines are:
Level 0 (top level): ======================
Level 1: ----------------------
Level 2: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Level 3: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Level 4 (bottom level): ++++++++++++++++++++++
and the one-line title prefixes:
= Document Title (level 0) =
== Section title (level 1) ==
=== Section title (level 2) ===
==== Section title (level 3) ====
===== Section title (level 4) =====
The buildroot manual is currenly using the two-line titles, but this has
multiple disadvantages:
- asciidoc also uses some of the underline symbols for other purposes (like
preformatted code, example blocks, ...), which makes it difficult to do
mass replacements, such as a planned follow-up patch that needs to move
all sections one level down.
- it is difficult to remember which level a given underline symbol (=-~^+)
corresponds to, while counting = signs is easy.
This patch changes all two-level titles to one-level titles in the manual.
The bulk of the change was done with the following Python script, except for
the level 1 titles (-----) as these underlines are also used for literal
code blocks.
This patch only changes the titles, no other changes. In
adding-packages-directory.txt, I did add missing newlines between some
titles and their content.

For these libraries, you need to install both runtime and development
|
|
|
|
|
data, which in many distributions are packaged separately. The
|
|
|
|
|
development packages typically have a _-dev_ or _-devel_ suffix.

In the official tree, most of the package sources are retrieved using

|
|
|
+wget+ from _ftp_, _http_ or _https_ locations. A few packages are only
|
|
|
|
|
available through a version control system. Moreover, Buildroot is
|
|
|
|
|
capable of downloading sources via other tools, like +rsync+ or +scp+
|
|
|
|
|
(refer to xref:download-infra[] for more details). If you enable
|
|
|
|
|
packages using any of these methods, you will need to install the
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding tool on the host system:
