But that configuration says that you must have a PIAFmisc folder reachable at:
http://sto-opq-src.scc.se/svn/PIAFmisc

I do.

So you need to map a given svn URL to a Trac (or another source browser) that is configured to browse /that/ repository. In Trac, the configuration is the directory containing the svn repository, and from that, there's no way to infer the URL(s) by which this repository is reachable (or conversely, from an URL, we can't know the location of the repository in the filesystem). That's why we need this mapping.

Your first statement says it all - and is not so obvious from the svn:externals docs. I thought that the svn:externals stuff was to let this Trac manage browsing the external repo. I did not understand that it simply was a way to redirect to a different Trac instance to browse the external. Understanding that makes all this very clear. I think that should be explicitly stated in the svn:externals docs. I think I needed a hammer on the head type of statement to see what the svn:externals is really doing.

It also means that my actual setup using the multirepos version of Trac was the right way to go :)
