Newlib stuck
Hi!
There seems to be some problem with updating newlib...
(Failed 4 months ago.)
TIA,
Peter
Hi Peter,
There seems to be something wrong with the CVS/Entries in this repository. We're unable to checkout files from 1999, e.g.:
cvsnt -d :pserver:anoncvs:[email protected]:/cvs/src checkout -D'1999/05/03 07:29:06Z' -A -d'476'
cvsnt checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
I have the same problem on my macbook. Would you be able to fix this problem in the repo or know someone who could?
Thanks,
Andy
PS In some cases, problems like this are fixed in a subsequent checkin and do not affect the typical users of the repository. Unfortunately, Ohloh needs to checkout every commit and gives up if it's unable to.
Hmmm, I'm not really familiar with newlib and how they are using cvs, but it seems that the newlib cvs module is just an alias for stuff really located elsewhere in the repo.
I changed the enlistments to point at the two major components (src/newlib and src/libgloss) instead.
However, I'll share the following observation. If I run this command, it fails:
cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs:[email protected]:/cvs/src co -D'1999/05/03 07:29:06Z' -A -d'476' newlib
But it I add -N in there, it succeeds:
cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs:[email protected]:/cvs/src co -D'1999/05/03 07:29:06Z' -AN -d'476' newlib
Maybe that's the problem you are hitting as well?
Cheers,
Peter
