Valentine" To: questions@freebsd.org Subject: cvsup problems Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG This is quite bizzare and I've never had any trouble with cvsup before. The mailing list archives don't seem to suggest a fix either. Here is my supfile: *default host=cvsup9.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all It's literally just taken out of /usr/share/examples/cvsup as I always do. Running cvsup on this file produces the following: reef# cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile Parsing supfile "stable-supfile" Connecting to cvsup9.FreeBSD.org Connected to cvsup9.FreeBSD.org Server software version: REL_16_1 Negotiating file attribute support Exchanging collection information Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection Running Updating collection src-all/cvs Shutting down connection to server Finished successfully And this is with an empty /usr/src! This box cvsup's the ports collection fine. I tried changing tag to =. and see if I could get -current sources, but I get the same behavior that way as well. I have also tried more than one cvsup mirror. CVSup makes sure to create a /usr/sup/src-all directory and populate it though. /usr/src is still empty. I'm fixing to just suck it down via anoncvs, but I'd still like to know if anyone has an inkling as to why this is happening. -- Brandon D.
