Description dennisg 1997-01-08 01:30:02 UTC
the followng is a snippit from the make file.

.if !defined(RELEASETAG)
        cd ${CHROOTDIR}/usr && rm -rf src && \
                cvs -d ${CVSROOT} co -P src

this fails with -P no a valid *cvs* option.  I don't know why because it is a valid co option
it's pupose is to prune the tree.

Fix: 

?????
How-To-Repeat: make release

Is CVSROOT defined in your environment?  Since it's a local variable, it
must be defined before you run the command.

Looks like the originator had $CVSROOT not set.  make relase 
definately works as expected, the BETA wouldn't ahve been possible 
at all otherwise.
