On the upgrade from viewcvs-0.9.2_p20030430 to viewcvs-0.9.2_p20030430-r1, viewcvs broke in conjunction with Subversion. The URL provided states the problem, but it isn't fixed upstream (yet?), it also provides a solution which works fine for me.
Correction: Viewcvs is almost completly unusable (raising severity - critical as viewcvs crashes). Are there others to confirm this bug? Exceptions also on display of revision and revision history, only the directory browser works fine with the patch. Everybody using viewcvs with Subversion should be able to confirm this problem.
It's true that the url provided above fixes the problem, but the underlying problem seems to be the mcvs patch that I added. I've removed the mcvs patch, and svn works again. If you still have problems, please reopen this bug.
