Vin, I have fixed this now by
From: Adrian.Aichner(a)t-online.de (Adrian Aichner)
Subject: [PATCH APPROVE COMMIT] dk-CVSROOT: Put cvs locks under /pack/cvs/var/lock for
access by user cvs
To: XEmacs Patches <xemacs-patches(a)xemacs.org>
Date: 05 Dec 2001 09:22:05 +0100
Message-ID: <7ks2f55e.fsf(a)mailto.t-online.de>
as suggested by staff(a)SunSITE.dk
We will also get file permissions fixed in the CVS repository.
Best regards,
Adrian
