This implies the branch tag 'XFIXES_BRANCH' doesn't exist. Maybe, try:
$ cvs checkout -r XFIXES xc If that fails, just checkout as normal (ie drop the -r <tag>), and do a 'cvs log' on the file to examine what tags are available to checkout the code on. Hope this helps! PS When will the next test release become available, with those SEGV fixes? I get a SEGV when copying > ~100 lines of text from a gnome-terminal onto the clipboard, with the -clipboard feature enabled. I posted the backtrace some time ago (4 weeks?). Many thanks! Dan --- Thanks Alex, I tried that but got an error.
