Yes, I find it's a compression problem too. I have compression set at the default in my ~/.cvsrc so I use "cvs -z0 up" to update FlightGear (source), SimGear and TerraGear (which are all on the same server and are the only projects with which I have this problem). I used to think it was CygWin-specific but it's just the same on Linux.On 11/11/02 at 9:38 PM Matthew Law wrote:I've been having problems updating Simgear for a few days.
I've tried everything - including moving the lot and starting again but it
continually gets stuck at:
cvs server: Updating src-libs
U src-libs/.cvsignore
U src-libs/Makefile.am
U src-libs/metakit-2.4.3-33.tar.gz
U src-libs/zlib-1.1.4.tar.gz
U src-libs/zlib.dsp
and goes no further.
I have no problems updating the fgfsbase or FlightGear CVS.
I don't use compression on CVS (e.g. -z3 etc) as this did seem to cause some unpredictable behaviour in the past. I don't usually have any problems so I just wanted to check with you guys before looking over my box.
Given that src-libs/zlib.dsp is the very last file to be updated, and that you don't really need it to be updated anyway if you've already installed zlib, I would think it would be fine simply to hit ctrl-c when it gets stuck at this point and assume that SimGear itself has updated fine. FWIW, I also sometimes see this hang-up behaviour at the end, but so far only when using compression.
So, if you're sure -z0 is in effect, I can confirm that hitting Ctrl-C works OK on a "cvs update". However, doing a "cvs diff > blah.diff", Ctrl-C is not good: you lose the end of the diff file.
