It comes with most distros - make sure you have cvs package installed. Are you interested in server or client?

Knowing nothing is one thing, not
reading what you subscribe to is stupid ... Please, don't double-post: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...threadid=71635 Cheers, Tink |
if nobody replies u need do something of the sort. the last hread i posted nobody replied to t so i double posted sorry about that but i was desperate
and i would be looking for a client, i think, because i want to install gIFT. i am running RH 9.0 |
Agh...Now the replies are in both threads...
You should have a cvs client in your system... Try to open a terminal and run cvs What does it show you? |
CVS isnt installed. i tried running the command cvs but a message was returned saying command not found. i also tried "which cvs", and it said cvs not found.
i have downloaded the cvs-x.x.tar.gz file now how do i proceed with it. i followed the instructions from www.fluidthoughts.com/howto/cvs/install/ but couldnt run the command ./make the directory or file didnt exist. plz help me out. |
You don't need to compie it - it will be easier to use RPM (if you're using an RPM version). Package name is 'cvs'. If you can't find it on your installation cds, choose the latest version for your distro from rpmfind.net: ttp://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=cvs&submit=Search+... (if the link doesn't work, visit rpmfind.net and search for 'cvs').

i searched as u told me but there was no rpm version for red hat 9.0
|
Are you sure it's not on your cds?
