In this case, repoman's /tmp is far from full: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1e 7858549 65 7229801 0% /tmp There's nothing in dmesg about cvs crashing, nor log messages anywhere obvious that I can find that might give a clue as to what is going on. I tested a cvs update myself, and it worked for me. The best guess I can come up with is that the local checkout is corrupt somehow. -- Peter Wemm - peter@wemm.org; peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com "All of this is for nothing if we don't go to the stars" - JMS/B5 "If Java had true garbage collection, most programs would delete themselves upon execution." -- Robert Sewell
