the problem is, that the original zc.buildout documentation was and is complete crap, so we did our own. You can not point people to http://www.buildout.org/en/latest/ and also the doctest style pseudo documentation at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/2.4.0 is even for hardcore pythonistas difficult to read.
so we should update this old home-grown manual.

It is gone in the 5 docs, but still in the 4 docs is that still needed in 5/5.x ?

We have started to migrate the "homegrown version" of buildout docs at https://4.docs.plone.org/old-reference-manuals/buildout/ as mentioned by @jensens into Plone 6 documentation on an "as needed" basis. PR #1746 was part of this effort. There is now a reference to the homegrown version in the Glossary, instead of the poorly structured and written versions from
zc.buildout
and Buildout.@petschki @yurj @MrTango @davisagli @mauritsvanrees @gforcada pinging y'all to be aware of this resource, as we continue documenting the use of Buildout in Plone 6 Documentation. Thanks to @polyester for keeping it running!
Closing as completed in #1746 and #1757.
