cvs problems using cvs co -r woody boot-floppies

2001-02-27 Thread Walter Tautz
Keep getting the exact error (when running cvs co -r woody boot-floppies)


snip
...

cvs server: Updating boot-floppies/special

Who do I report this to. Is it my fault? (I am running the testing distribution)

NOTE I keep getting the exact same error message and it always stops at the 
bf-utf line.
No matter how often I run this ...

Hi,

Thanks for the cvs answers, now I just have to figure out how to compile and 
make sure there is no dependency problem (which I experienced when first trying 
to follow the Makefile instructions) More on this might come later, or maybe 
it's better to contact the gote-admin?

Well in the case of my headers eventually crashing Matus' mailfiltering, I have 
now removed them. And I must admit that it was a kind of stupid thing to do, I 
just wanted to learn mutt, and playing around I found a way of creating my own 
headers. Three of them where lousy, I know. But the fourth, namely:

character-encoding: ISO 8859-1

Seems like a god idea, since we don't all use the same, and I've seen some 
bizarr guessings on what language some postings are written in. (Maybe this is 
to no help, maybe I'm just babbling...

 All the same, Tomas, if your odd mail headers are causing difficulty for
 people then you might want to consider moving that stuff to a .signature
 file or something.

Hi!

I'm trying to test 'gote'. But the only way of getting it is via cvs. I've 
installed cvs, and now what. (please don't answer RTFM, but insted point me to 
the right ones)

the CVS-RCS-HOWTO mentions pserver (and so does the configuration script at 
install time) but I don't seem to have it.

As you can see, I'm quite a beginner in this issue (and in linux to) but i 
really want to try gote out. (gote - gnome open type editor, 
http://gote.sourceforge.net)

regards,tomas

OK :) Try the gote project page at
http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=5176, which has full instructions
(in my copy of it here, backslashes indicate line continuation):

   This project's SourceForge CVS repository can be checked out through
   anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The
   module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename.
   When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter
   key.

   cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/gote \
   login

   cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/gote \
   co modulename

   Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d
   parameter.

The modulename is, unsurprisingly, 'gote'.

Hope that helps,

my first q was:
 I'm trying to test 'gote'. But the only way of getting it is via cvs.
 I've installed cvs, and now what. (please don't answer RTFM, but insted
 point me to the right ones)
 

then i got the answer:

And I tried this whit the following result:

/snippet

I also tried the version mentiod above with -z3, this didn't work either.

So I problaby screwed the cvs setup. I'll try to redo that, but in the 
meantime, maybe someone knows something else I could try.

You have to checkout the module. And the -z3 will have the transfer
be somewhat compressed (good for ppp connections).  When you want to
update the repository, just 'cd' into the 'gote' directory and run:

$ export CVSROOT=`cat CVS/Root`
$ cvs -z3 update -dP

There's a couple pretty good manuals about CVS as Debian packages --
cvsbook and cvs-doc.

The error message that followed is the result of not giving cvs a command,
