I'm curious to know what heuristic "bitbake-layers layerindex-fetch"
uses to determine where to place the fetched layers?

I asked my system to:

  $ bitbake-layers layerindex-fetch meta-qt5

and it keeps insisting on installing meta-qt5 and meta-openembedded
under my openembedded-core layers resulting in:

  /z/master/layers/openembedded-core/meta-openembedded/meta-ruby \
  /z/master/layers/openembedded-core/meta-qt5 \

Is there a way that I can tell bitbake-layers that my layers are located
at /z/master/layers and have it work from there?
