[racket] Help On User Libraries - The Basics

I think there might be confusion between "raco make" and "raco setup"?

PLTCOLLECTION environment var but I'm already 2 kludges deep into a rather
simple thing.  To compile a simple local collection, I first trick it as
some sort of planet development link and then stumble across that there is
this environment variable backdoor.
