Package: cvs
Version: 1.10.8-1
Severity: normal
The -D option won't interoperate with 1.9 servers: The local cvs binary
converts any given date specification, such as "yesterday", "1 hour ago", or
"2000-08-11 07:06" into a format that a 1.9 server doesn't understand.

with 1.9 servers is no longer relevant, so, closing.
