Hi, I notice various examples of getting pkgsrc or the source code via CVS that look like this :
$ cd /usr && cvs -q -z2 -d anon...@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot checkout -r pkgsrc-20xxQy -P pkgsrc or $ cd /usr $ cvs checkout -r <BRANCH> -P src Same goes with instructions for getting pkgsrc as an archive : $ tar -xzf pkgsrc.tar.gz -C /usr Now, as far as I know, lines that start with '$' are supposed to be executed as a normal user, but as a normal user they won't work as the /usr permissions won't allow writing to that location. So in order to improve clarity my suggestion would be replacing '$' with a '#' so the user would know that root privileges are needed. -- Rares Aioanei
