The :ref:`openssl-native <ref-classes-openssl-native>` class supports 
using the native version of ``openssl``

I could suggest:
"""
built by the Yocto Project instead of the one provided by the build host 
distribution.
"""

I find "rather than support of the version..." confusing.

I think we could also replace the "It helps" sentence by stating that 
any recipe requiring openssl to be run on the host should inherit this 
class instead of just adding openssl-native to DEPENDS. Maybe that could 
even be a new QA check?

I would still keep the last sentence though.

What do you think?

(Thank you for sending a documentation patch in the same series as the 
code implementation, this is rare enough to be highlighted, much 
appreciated!)

Cheers,
Quentin

The text and syntax was shamesly copied from the other class descriptions.
Sould those all be updated?

Yes, I can send a new version. I copied the text template form the other
class descriptions so maybe they need to be changed too.

You're welcome. I RTFM all the time and thus would like to keep the docs
in sync whenever I can.

It's being worked on by Michael AFAIK (he sent a v1 of 30 patches last 
week). In short, we want to have all mentions of classes and terms 
(variables basically) using a link (:ref: for classes, :term: for 
variables), even within the section defining the class or variable itself.

Mmmm, would you be able to point me to which class descriptions you're 
talking about? Not sure to understand what you're suggesting here :)

Hi, dropping oe-core since this is doc specific

Yes, python3native:

.. _ref-classes-python3native:

``python3native.bbclass``
=========================

The ``python3native`` class supports using the native version of Python
3 built by the build system rather than support of the version provided
by the build host.
