hi list,
i am trying to upĆ¼date my ancient webcvs.
In the lastest version (downloaded from cvs repo)

cvsweb.cgi:
     $FreeBSD: www/en/cgi/cvsweb.cgi,v 1.93 2010/11/13 16:37:18 simon Exp $
     $Id: cvsweb.cgi,v 1.112 2001/07/24 13:03:16 hzeller Exp $
     $Idaemons: /home/cvs/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi,v 1.84 2001/10/07 20:50:10 knu Exp $
     $FreeBSD: www/en/cgi/cvsweb.cgi,v 1.93 2010/11/13 16:37:18 simon Exp $
     $scriptwhere: the URI escaped $


the following error occurs:

Character in 'c' format wrapped in pack at /srv/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi line 4463.

the reason is that in that line is "c10" instead of "C10" (capital C)

 my ($header) = pack("C10",
                      MAGIC1, MAGIC2, Compress::Zlib::Z_DEFLATED(),
                      0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, OSCODE);


it would be nice if someone could fix that longstanding bug. (fill my error log).
you sould also update the tar.gz  at http://people.freebsd.org/~scop/cvsweb/
