Description Andre 2005-11-01 01:59:21 UTC

There appears to be a copy and paste bug with the cvs bin not existing error
message in emerge.

print "!!! /usr/bin/cvs does not exist, so rsync support is disabled."

is being used which doesn't really make sense.

I don't actually have a running version of gentoo at the moment, I was just
browsing the emerge source and saw this typo so I can't confirm it occurs on a
working system sorry.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Theoretically, yes it could.  Thanks, it's in svn now for release in 2.1_pre5.
