Debugging csup for DragonFly
0%
Description
FreeBSD-current has csup in the base system, and I've tried using it
twice on DF with mixed results.
The FBSD sources compile on DF without modification, and the binary
will fetch a freshly checked-out src/ from DF.
The problem is that csup will choke with a 'Protocol error' when
importing any changes from the server. If I delete the outdated
files then csup will check out the new versions with no problem.
While trying to debug this problem I used a packet sniffer to look
at the network traffic and ran across a different puzzle: I have
no /usr/src/kerberosIV directory, even though I can see the network
traffic talking about all the files that should be in it, and the
'checkouts' file in /usr/sup/ includes the kerberosIV directory.
Any ideas?
Is anyone here using csup successfully? If not, how is everyone
updating sources?

src/kerberosIV contained the krb4 implementation and all the files are
in the Attic. It still has to scan them e.g. if they match the current
branch etc. This is entirely expected.

good old cvsup, or if you want a complete repro, cvsync
take care

Thanks. You snipped the more important question: how do you update
your DF sources?

:-) currently I have a few trees directly checked out from crater using
cvs and a local repo copy from grappa.unix-ag.uni-kl.de using cvsync.

I am using rsync from chlamydia to get the repo, then cvs up from there - or mercurial, of course.
cvsup does not compile and thus can't be used without hassle and cvsync creates broken RCS files which can't be always used by CVS. I reported this bug over one year ago to the author but he didn't seem that he intends to fix it or even add it as an errata item.

Yes, that's why I've been using mostly CVS for the past months, using
the one CVS server I know of. I discovered a month ago that the cvsup
binary from my FBSD box would actually run on DF -- until my last build
of world/kernel. Now cvsup just segfaults :o(
The good news is that csup almost works -- in fact I think maybe I
can debug it myself (perhaps with a little help). Have you lost all
interest in CVS in favor of Hg?

ftp://packages.stura.uni-rostock.de/bsdinstaller/dragonfly-1.4/cvsup-bin-16.1h.tgz
should still work.

Thanks. I tried the package suggested by Sascha and it works, so I'll keep
on using it until it doesn't work.
Meanwhile, is anyone interested in getting csup to work? ;o)

Yes. I just noticed that Maxime has released an updated csup
and I'm going to try it on DF today.
