cvs doesn't even login without using the -f option; I don't see in the manpage that -f should be used while login - also -f seems to be needed on gentoo only. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gimp-sharp login Actual Results: cvs: invalid option -- l Usage: cvs [cvs-options] command [command-options-and-arguments] where cvs-options are -q, -n, etc. (specify --help-options for a list of options) where command is add, admin, etc. (specify --help-commands for a list of commands or --help-synonyms for a list of command synonyms) where command-options-and-arguments depend on the specific command (specify -H followed by a command name for command-specific help) Specify --help to receive this message The Concurrent Versions System (CVS) is a tool for version control. For CVS updates and additional information, see the CVS home page at http://www.cvshome.org/ or the CVSNT home page at http://www.cvsnt.org/ Expected Results: Ask for a password. Everything works when using "cvs -f -d:pserver:[...]"
check your ~/.cvsrc as the command you provided works perfectly for me. also provide your emerge info and the output from 'emerge -pv cvs'
