Hi,

I'm using cvsup to checkout a source tree that is not owned by root.
Is it just me, or does somebody else also notice that every time after a
cvsup wherein sendmail has been upgraded, /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf is
suddenly owned by root? This causes the next cvsup to fail...

It happened last time (the update to 8.11.2) and happened today also (with
the update to 8.11.3):

===> Source cvsup ended on 2001/03/06 09:42:22

The problem goes away when I change ownership of /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf
back to my regular user (presumably because there are no more updates in that
directory).
