Hi, i believe that the FreeBSD org uses CVS to take snapshots of its distribution and do basic configuration managment. I am trying to use cvs's cvswrappers feature to cover some binary maintenance. I put a .cvswrappers file in my home directory with the contents: *.class -f '/usr/bin/gzip -d %s' -t '/usr/bin/gzip %s /net/cvs/binaries' -m 'COPY' Then when I try to use cvs to check out anything, I get the following error message: % /usr/local/src/cvs-1.10/src/cvs checkout CVSROOT % cvs [checkout aborted]: -t/-f wrappers not supported by this version of CVS Am I incorrect in assuming that FreeBSD uses CVS? Is there a cvs version which works on FreeBSD which is avail? It does seem to work okay on linux, or at least it does not give any error message. Does the FreeBSD org do anything with the binaries interms of cvs? When I do a make check as root, the system fails at: This test should produce no other output than this line, and a final "OK".
