+# The goal of this tiny module is to let Bugzilla packagers of        #
+# various Linux distributions easily specify the path to the Bugzilla #
+# modules without having to edit each *.cgi script manually to fix    #
+# the | use lib qw(. lib) | line.                                     #
+#                                                                     #
+# If the real Bugzilla.pm module and the Bugzilla/ directory are in   #
+# the same directory as *.cgi scripts (which is the default), then    #
+# this module is useless and has no effect.                           #
+# If the real Bugzilla.pm module and other Bugzilla/*.pm modules are  #
+# moved elsewhere, then the *.cgi scripts will call this module which #
+# will give them the location of the Bugzilla modules.                #
