I had some trouble trying to track down when traceroute stopped working: (hasso just commited fix ;-)
My plan was to use vkernel to find the date it stopped working: Checking out full sources for given date and building and installing world and VKERNEL. But it failed: using cvs checkout, sources checked out w/ -D2008-06-07 fails buildworld. It turns out reason is that checked out src/contrib/libarchive-2/libarchive/archive.h.in is "wrong" version: It is revision 1.2, but newer revision in vendor branch 1.1.1.X exists (the "right" one ;-). (reason seems to be that handling vendor branches is difficult for most of us) This seems to be as advetised: cvs checkout -D is documented to give latest revision, checked out to given date. cvs checkout without -D does get "right" (ie latest) file revision (1.3 dead in this case). Can cvs checkout the "right" file version for given date (same as checkout (without -D) on date)? -thomas
