CVSUP Issues FBSD 6.0

2005-11-12 Thread Robert Slade
Hiya,

I'm having a problem with newly installed system. cvsup -g L 2 supfile
gives Release not specified for collection default with the supfile
(based on standard-supfile) containing:

default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org
default base=/var/db
default prefix=/usr
default release=cvs
default tag=RELENG_6_0
default delete use-rel-suffix

src-all

I have tried different mirrors with the same result.

Rob

You do not want default as a collection.  You want to *set*
default values for some variables.  To set default values, you
need to have an '*' character before the word 'default'.  E.g.:

*default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs
*default tag=RELENG_6_0
*default delete use-rel-suffix

src-all

Note that you do not want to add a '*' before 'src-all', because
'src-all' is the name of a collection that you want to track.

Garance,

Thanks - it's working. I was staring at it and totally missed the *.
