I checked my older install of cygwin on another machine and found that it a= lso has 1.12.13 I don't have problems with this copy and it is part of a cygwin install tha= t has the same dll as the previous installation of cygwin on my other machi= ne. I am pursuing this with the CVS folks, but they are not very responsive (as= I would expect). -Kevin -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com [mailto:cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com] On Behalf Of= Charles Wilson Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 5:41 PM To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: Re: 1.7.1: cvs version built in is unstable On 3/16/2010 4:35 PM, Roe, Kevin L. wrote: > The built in version of CVS is the "unstable" feature release version 1.1= 2.13 >=20 > I am having problems with CVS that I never had before I upgraded cygwin t= o 1.7.1.

Find cvs. Click on the word 'keep' until it cycle around to the prev: version, 1.11.22-1 (we've never had a cygwin port of '1.11.23'). While I'm not ruling out a problem with cygwin's current cvs package, I tend to doubt it is the true culprit here. I'd be interested in hearing back (on this list) if cygwin-1.7.1 + cvs-1.11.22 actually fixes your problem; I rather doubt it will. -- Chuck -- Problem reports: http://*cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://*cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://*cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://*cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
