FreeBSD soup.thpoon.com 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #0: Tue Oct 15 01:53:24 EDT 2002     root@****.******.com:/usr/obj/h/src/freebsd/src.RELENG_4/sys/SOUP  i386
>Description:
      File ports/print/rlpr/files/patch-ac,v contains gibberish at the end of the file, so that cvs checkout of the ports tree fails with the following error message:

    cvs [update aborted]: EOF while looking for end of string in RCS\
         file /src/freebsd/cvsroot/ports/print/rlpr/files/patch-ac,v

I am maintaining a local copy of the freebsd CVS root with cvsup, and tried to different cvsup mirrors (cvsup7 and cvsup11), and both have the corrupt file.
>How-To-Repeat:
      Check out a copy of the CVS root with cvsup with the following supfile:

----------------- cut -------------------
*default host=cvsup11.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/src/freebsd/cvsroot
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix

ports-all
------------------------ cut -------------------

And then attempt to check out a copy of the ports tree with the command

  cvs -d /src/freebsd/cvsroot checkout ports

The checkout will be terminated abnormally.
>Fix:
      The file ports/print/rlpr/files/patch-ac needs to be examined and re-checked in or removed from the repository.
