Hi guys, I am back again to bother some more ;) Since I am starting some more serious development on CURRENT I switched cvsup from getting the checked out version to getting the updated version(,v) files. I made the base and prefix directory both /usr so CVSROOT lies in /usr I know from some meedling with cvs that I need to specify a CVSROOT environment variable, so I did a CVSROOT=/usr before starting work on the cvs stuff. [root@daemon] (138) # echo $CVSROOT /usr Because I already have doc, ports and src in place I did a cvs update -P -d from /usr and the following startled me: [root@daemon] (139) # cvs update -P -d cvs update: Updating ports cvs [update aborted]: cannot open directory /home/ncvs/ports: No such file or directory I looked in CVSROOT and saw that there were some log entries regarding hardlinked /home/ncvs for CVSROOT which would be set back to $CVSROOT. But I have no clue whatsoever where this /home/ncvs comes from. Any ideas are appreciated... --- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven A veil of smoke is what I am, asmodai(at)wxs.nl I wait and I wait...
