Import contrib/CVS #20

Open RainbowHackerHorse opened 8 years ago

http://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/cvs/source/feature/1.12.13/ pkgsrc requires CVS. We'll need to import in contrib.

so.

0.) its default is to use its internally-distributed zlib... which hasn't been updated since at the least may 2008. there is a patch we can use that will use the system zlib, which i highly recommend we implement. it will be the first patch we would need to apply. there are various other patches as well, which i recommend we implement (at https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/cvs). i know we try to keep in line with upstream, but when it's been 8 years since the last release and there's been at least one CVE released in the meanwhile, it's something i recommend.

1.) do you want GSSAPI support? if so, we pull in kerberos as a dependency. if not, we can leave it be.

0) That's fine. If we need to implement patches, then we do so. This has moved away from my original 10-minute vision of the distro anyway, into something way cooler and better. This is the reason we've opted for the development process we have. As long as we can keep things clean, that's fine 1) No. No need for kerberos in BASE.

Hello,

There are git mirrors of pkgsrc; would that not suit Pür Linux more?
