Hmm, I may be wrong, but I am afraid you have been downloading the
-CURRENT crypto sources (tag=3D.). You can check this out by looking at
the cvs-crypto checkouts file.
Also, you might want to have a look at /usr/share/examples/cvsup; in
particular, you might want to examine the 4.x cvsupfiles.
As to the "subtlety", I was referring to the "first time" update. In
this specific case, you should use the list=3Dcvs:<appropriate_tag> tric=
k,
as described in J. Polstra's FAQ, in order to correctly update your
sources (in two steps). This makes sure you do not miss important file
deletions. To tell the truth, this piece of information can be
inferred from the cvsup man pages, but J Polstra's FAQs make this
point clear and explicit.
J.Polstra is (wait for it) the author of cvsup ...
HTH,
Salvo
