Dylan if we're going the LIBGL road, can we please use the GBM variable first
and then fallback to the LIBGL one ? This way things won't break for people
using the former. Meanwhile I'm writing docs/gbm.html with some rough
description what gbm is and all the env vars used :-)
git grep -i gbm -- docs/
0 matches found
Thanks
