After reading http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook272.html and 'man ctm' several times, I have to say that I still don't understand it very well. Take this example from the handbook: <snip> To apply the deltas, simply say: cd /where/ever/you/want/the/stuff ctm -v -v /where/you/store/your/deltas/src-xxx.* </snip> What on earth is "/where/ever/you/want/the/stuff"? The "/where/you/store/your/deltas/" is obvious, but there's no explanation at all for the first directory. I think this is the only problem I have, because if when I run ctm it says that everything checks out okay, but I don't think it's in the right directory (i.e. I ran ctm in /usr/CTM, where I have the gzipped deltas, and the result sure doesn't look right). I think I just need a little more hand-holding than the documentation provides...
