Yes Please, I feel that I deserve it. If you would be so kind as to use
a hammer and chisel and make a mirror image so that I don't forget :-)
because after reading the handbook, the FAQ, the Makefile and 51 printed
pages of the man entry for cvs, I still can't get a release.

Here is my error
for i in /sbin/mount /sbin/umount /usr/bin/cpio ; do cp -p /squid2$i
/squid2//bootstrap ; done
cd /squid2/usr && rm -rf src && cvs -d /usr/src co -P src
cvs checkout: cannot find module `src' - ignored
*** Error code 1
Stop.
Here's what I am doing.
I do exactly as the manual recomends:
Manual:
*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
src-all
cvs-crypto
My file:
*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all
cvs-crypto
ports-all
With this I do a cvsup -p -L 2 cvs-supfile as the cvs-supfile recomends
and I assume that this creates the repository that you mention.
I have tried to make release both with and without a make world
first with the same results.
I loose it at the following line in the Makefile in the release
directory.
.if !defined(RELEASETAG)
cd ${CHROOTDIR}/usr && rm -rf src && \
cvs -d ${CVSROOT} co -P src
It seems to want to find the src directory en the $CHROOTDIR/usr
that it erased. I have gone into the directory directly and done
a check on each directory and it seems to work fine.
I'm sure that I have skipped over the result that I will gladly engrave
with a hammer and chisel as a mirror image on my forehead if you will
just tell me what to engrave :-)
thanks
ed
P.S. I have tried using the environment variables, the CVS Root and
Repository
variables, and the hard coded ones in the Makefile with the same
results.
