<para>
Plinth reads various configuration options from the file
<filename>/etc/plinth/plinth.config</filename>. If this file is
not present, then it reads configuration file
<filename>./plinth.config</filename> from the current directory.
This is mainly meant to make Plinth work with configuration from
source code directory for debugging purposes.
Plinth reads various configuration options from the files
<filename>/usr/share/freedombox/freedombox.config</filename>,
<filename>/usr/share/freedombox/freedombox.config.d/*.config</filename>,
<filename>/etc/plinth/plinth.config</filename>,
<filename>/etc/plinth/plinth.config.d/*.config</filename>,
<filename>/etc/freedombox/freedombox.config</filename> and
<filename>/etc/freedombox/freedombox.config.d/*.config</filename> in that
order. Options in a file read later override options specified earlier.
<filename>/etc/plinth/</filename> locations are deprecated.
