[Qgis-user] How to merge layers without a work-around?

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi Tobias,

The native tool was broken in 2.18.4 but is fixed now

http://hub.qgis.org/issues/16292

Please try the latest nightly from 2.18 (and comment on the issue if
it's still not fixed) so this can be shipped in a good shape with 2.15.

Thanks

Matthias
