I can't seem to get CVS to work on Arch Linux (cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot make directory /var/lock/cvs/projectname: Permission denied), and what a brilliant software this is.(strace reveals no access on /var/lock/* at all, so.)

@rixx On a more serious response, did you use the -f (follow child processes) switch?

@rhonda I did not, thanks! I don't really see how it can be true, regardless, since it even occurred after granting 777 on that dir (-R).

@rixx @rhonda I hope this doesn't seem like I'm gloating about your pain, but I'm strangley glad that CVS is still as terrible as it was 17 years ago
