I'd like to suggest that the current "Warning: no config.bld file was
found along the package path..." emitted whenever the
$XDC_INSTALL_DIR/packages/config.bld is used be changed to a "Remark". Or
perhaps provide some way to say "I know I'm using that config.bld, please
don't warn me about it".

Some of my packages don't contain any binaries, and the default config.bld
provided in XDCtools is exactly what I want. But my build logs show this
as a warning - and I prefer to build without warnings.

Open to other workarounds... I fundamentally just want to avoid the
Warning msg.

We added the warning because too many users complained that the when
their config.bld was not picked up by the tools (e.g., it was not on the
package path), the xdc command would complete without any indication of
a problem.

The "last resort" config.bld is $XDCROOT/etc/config.bld and is only used
when no config.bld can be found in the current working directory or
along the package path.

You can explicitly specify the config.bld to use on the command line,
place a config.bld in the package's base, or place it in any directory
named on the package path.

You could create a repository that just contains your config.bld and
place this on your package path. Note, however, the latest release of
the path tool will warn about repositories that do not contain packages
(doh!)

Got it, and I like it - my only issue is that it's classified as a
"Warning", so it makes my builds chatty and full of "Warnings".

If I explicitly say XDCBUILDCFG=$XDCROOT/etc/config.bld on the cmd line,
it'd be nice if the Warning goes away? (Can $XDCROOT/etc/config.bld
detect that and only conditionally issue the warning?)

Or is the only option to provide my own one-line config.bld?

It's possible but not cheap: the config.bld can check the environment
for XDCBUILDCFG and compare it to java.io.File('.") + "/config.bld".

With the current release, yes. Is it likely that this file will remain
just a one-liner? I often add "Pkg.attrs.archiver = 'zip';", for example.
