Subject: [PATCH] overview-manual/concepts.rst: fix do_prepare_recipe_sysroot task description
Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2026 20:54:04 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260422185404.14111-1-bijak.dawid@gmail.com> (raw)

The description incorrectly stated that the sysroots are set up for
use during the packaging phase. In fact, do_prepare_recipe_sysroot
runs before do_configure, and the sysroots are consumed by
do_configure and do_compile.

Reword to refer to subsequent tasks in the recipe and call out
do_configure and do_compile explicitly.
