Changeset 28575 for main/trunk/greenstone2/perllib/doc.pm

Message:

Removing the unused env_var variable from the set_gnomelib_env function introduced yesterday and commented out references to this variable in this function. Instead, doc.pm has a comment on how to set and use this env variable (if it's ever needed) before launching any binary dependent on it.
