I looked at that. My cvs hasn't changed, my OS hasn't changed.

The problem is that if the results directory exists, the update fails because there is no /CVS directory in there. Here is a sample session. At the start regress/results does not exist: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ cvs update -d -P pgsql ? pgsql/config.log ... $ cd /pg/test/regress/ $ mkdir results $ cd - /pgcvs $ cvs update -d -P pgsql ? pgsql/config.log ... ? pgsql/src/test/regress/results cvs update: in directory pgsql/src/test/regress/results: cvs update: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory --------------------------------------------------------------------------- It seems to be failing because there is no CVS directory in results.
