RE: [GUSDEV] Re: [CBIL] GUS Config Changes

[Y. T. G. <yg...@pc...>]

On a fresh $GUS_HOME (possibly first attempt to install GUS software and
the user is new to GUS),
the GUS installer will simply complain that $GUS_HOME/config/gus.config
does not exist.

I have checked in a fix to the GUS installer to give explicit
instruction on what to do
when that happens (copying from the sample file and make appropriate
edits if necessary).
