You have to restove src/gnu part, see below...

Nope ;-) You meant GNU Info, which is only one of GNU-produced modules
included/used in FreeBSD.
src/gnu exists mainly to differentiate parts of the system with different
licenses: if you read carefully, you'll see GPL much more restrictive than BSD
license... OTOH, actual non-BSD developed sources lie under src/contrib, not
under src/gnu...
M> thx for help...so the one think to fix the problem is to receive GNU?
actually, for now the only collections you can safely excude are:
src-games
src-kerberos5
src-kerberosIV
src-release
src-tools
src-eBones
... and, FWIW, they will *not* occupy too much space on one's HD, so I usually
simply do cvsup cvs-all.

Right. It makes all bits under /usr/obj, and then, during installworld, install
them as appropriate (/{s,}bin, /usr/{s,}bin /usr/lib etc, etc)
Have a nice stable! ;-)
