I cannot get flightgear to compile to save my life.  I usually update with
the following command:

cvs -dP

I have tried doing a make clean prior to doing a make.  What else can I
do?  Why doesn't this work?  It seems to me, that if I do a simple cvs
command that ought to all-encompassingly update the project, I ought to
end up with a buildable set of code, but no.  I have no idea what I'm
doing wrong.  It seems so utterly simple, it baffles me to imagine where I
could possibly be making a wrong turn.

Should I just scrap my entire flightgear directory, throw it away, and
start over from scratch?  It's not like I've even been doing lots of code
modification that might mess up the cvs merge.  I'm simply trying to
download pure cvs code and it isn't working.  This is absolutely
ludicrous.  I've been banging on this thing for weeks.

Would it be helpful to email the build output to you folks?  I don't find
it very suggestive myself.  Many of the errors are of the type "no version
of such and such a function found", as if the necessary object files never
got created prior to the function calls getting linked.  How could that
occur?!

I realize this is probably not a problem anyone feels like thinking about
too hard, but if anyone has ANY idea what I'm doing wrong, I would really
appreciate a point in the right direction.

Thanks tremendously in advance.
