Hallo,
its not a bug but only an erraneous error-message in some cases.
I am using CVS 1.10.8.
In the routine lock.c in Line Numbers 761 to 763
error (0, errno,
"failed to create lock directory in repository `%s'",
lock->repository);
the last line should be
masterlock);
If you are using the LockDir-Option in the config-file, locks will be
made in the file stored in masterlock und not in the file stored
in lock->repository (see Line 744).
Sincerely, E. Stein
