CVS is a source-code control system. If you're going to use it it needs a directory where it's repository will reside. It isn't a "Debian" thing, it's only needed if you're going to be using CVS for your own projects. For more information on what CVS is see: http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs-index.html and take a look at the "Documentation" link. The short version is, you could tell it to put the repository anywhere you like, although I'd probably prefer somewhere in /usr/local. Gary
