Subject: [PATCH] doc: bitbake-user-manual: fix syntax in example and improve description
Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2021 19:10:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210722171021.69225-1-michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com> (raw)

The previous syntax of the example was clearly incorrect
The example and description were also ambiguous, one could think that
it was "bitbake recipe" instead of "bitbake <recipename>"
