Hi Flemming, This is what I tried earlier. Just to be sure, I went throught the delete, checkout steps again exactly as you suggest: same problem. I also deleted the full brat tree and tried a fresh complete checkout--same problem with the cvs [checkout aborted]: illegal special character in RCS field in /afs/rhic/brahms/BRAHMS_CVS/brat/dc/src/BrLocalTrackDC.cxx,v error. If it works fine for you, I guess this might be a linuxPPC/Macintosh problem. I'll try to check out the dc directory on the piis and scp it over... Thanks.. ...steve Flemming Videbaek wrote: > Steve, > > I must be a local problem, maybe with your CVS/revisions file. I just did a > complete checkout from afs (on rcf2) > without any problem.
