Description Joshua Watt 2019-10-02 16:38:06 UTC 
Since 62bd2e36 and 4602408c, multiconfig files are allowed to live in layers, rather than only in the build/conf directory. This should 1) be documented, and 2) have tests written to verify it doesn't regress

You got it :)
Comment 3 Randy MacLeod 2021-04-29 15:43:01 UTC 
Is this fixed as per Armin's link?
Seems like the documentation part isn't done yet so CCing Michael Opdenacker.

Sorry, I have not had time to do this yet. If someone wants to take it from me that's fine. Until then I will move it out.
