              To help conserve disk space during builds, you can add the following statement
              to your project's configuration file, which for this example
-             is <filename>&YOCTO_POKY;-build/conf/local.conf</filename>.
+             is <filename>&YOCTO_POKY;/build/conf/local.conf</filename>.
              Adding this statement deletes the work directory used for building a package
              once the package is built.
