-----------------------------------------
[~rgoers]
Should we start by marking packages as deprecated in the code and emitting a
warning to the status logger if used?
> Merge "packages" from several Configurations in Composite Configuration
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-2964
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2964
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Configuration, Core
> Reporter: Valery Yatsynovich
> Priority: Major
>
> When multiple configuration files are used and default merge strategy is in
> place, the attribute {{"packages"}} of the latest configuration takes
> precedence. However multiple configuration files may declare custom Appenders
> defined as {{@Plugin}} and these plugins may be declared in different
> packages.
> The proposed improvement is to perform merging of {{"packages"}} attributes
> from multiple configuration files in {{DefaultMergeStrategy}}.
