Environment

Multipass
Ubuntu 22.04
Rockcraft 1.5.3

It's an unfortunate limitation of override-prime today. However, your specific example is strange to me; it overrides prime to do manipulations on the part's install dir, which is used during the build. Is that intentional? Can you override build instead?

[alithethird]

We were using override-prime with Ubuntu 22.04 version so I tried to keep it same but it failed. When I used override-stage it worked but did not try with override-build.

My observation was more on the fact that I can't see how that project is working - for example, is /srv/indico/indico.wsgi really present on the final rock?
