[Koha-patches] [PATCH] Add basic restrictive robots.txt file to opac

[Nicole Engard]

If it's just for your benefit than a patch shouldn't be applied to
Koha - just to your local system :)

But if you don't know how do to a sys pref, you can submit a bug at
http://bugs.koha.org and have someone else try to tackle it.
