4) mkdir dist
mkdir logs
mkpdkcupcake.sh
(which contains:
DT=`date +%y%m%d-%H%M%S`
time make -j4 pdk pdk_all dist DIST_DIR=dist 2>&1 | tee logs/$DT
so you can see the results of the build in the logs directory.)
5) the pdk tar file is put in the dist directory.
The build target 'pdk' brings in the pdk/ndk make files into the build system.
Then there are three targets:
pdk_docs - which builds the pdk documentation
ndk - which builds the native development kit (native compiler, linker, etc.)
pdk_all - which builds the above two targets
