This comment says "... There is no need to modify it." but I think I need to modify the location for $pg_dir. I'm sure it is usually at /opt/webwork/pg but whoever initially installed WeBWorK on the AIM servers put things in unusual places. Do you agree that modifying that makes sense? Or is there something in site.conf that I should set to deal with this instead?

That comment is old, and is from before the recent changes that moved the PG library linking up in the file. If the PG directory is in a different location, then it will need to be modified there. The comment should be adjusted with the changes to say the same thing that the $webwork_dir says above. "Set this variable to the path to your PG installation."
