Bug 174037 – dev-util/cvs-1.12.12-r4 - Unknown command: `server'

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Brett 2007-04-10 15:03:21 UTC]

I use cvs / ssh and after updating the server my repoz lives on no clients work. I get the following error.

Unknown command: `server'

Rolling back to r2 fixes the issue.

I had the same problem with cvs-1.12.12-r[34] while using git-cvsimport on a repo dump. Indeed cvs-1.12.12-r2 does not have this problem.

Don't suppose anybody has noticed the new server USE flag? I don't use cvs, but that looks sort of likely..

[Comment 3 Robin Johnson 2007-04-10 19:07:52 UTC]

echo 'dev-util/cvs server' >>/etc/portage/package.use
emerge cvs
