This is cvsup not being bug-compatible with cvs. These files really were brought back from the dead, but cvs doesn't check them out because it left them in the Attic. The repository needs to be fixed; all of the files that are dead on the vendor branch should be updated to be dead but not be on the vendor branch. I know that futzing with the RCS files directly is considered too dangerous to think about, but is probably the easiest way to handle this case since cvs doesn't seem to want to. A sample RCS-file-munching is: --- bdes.1,v.old Tue Jul 8 11:56:53 1997 +++ bdes.1,v Tue Jul 8 12:00:20 1997 @@ -1,5 +1,5 @@ -head 1.1; -branch 1.1.1; +head 1.2; +branch; access; symbols bsd_44_lite_2:1.1.1.3 @@ -15,6 +15,11 @@ branches 1.1.1.1; next ; +1.2 +date 97.07.09.00.00.00; author someone; state dead; +branches; +next 1.1; + 1.1.1.1 date 94.05.27.12.30.50; author rgrimes; state Exp; branches; @@ -36,9 +41,9 @@ desc -1.1 +1.2 log -@Initial revision +@Remove already-dead file @ text @.\" Copyright (c) 1991, 1993 @@ -346,6 +351,13 @@ This is inherent in the DES algorithm (s .I "Advances in Cryptology \- Crypto '86 Proceedings" , Springer-Verlag New York, \(co1987, pp. 9-32.) @ + +1.1 +log +@Initial revision +@ +text +@@ 1.1.1.1 This is a trivial set of transforms that can be applied to any RCS file which has no rev 1.2 and is dead on the vendor branch.
