Hi,
Savannah uses cvsweb to show cvs websites.
In 2014 FreeBSD stopped maintaining cvsweb[1] and warned that "There may be
unpatched security issues with [cvsweb]".
Distributions like Trisquel still assume that it's maintained by FreeBSD as
they point to the cvsweb page on the FreeBSD website[2][3], but that page was
also removed few years ago[4][5].
