retitle 460432 gettext: autopoint should avoid using CVS
kthxbye

autopoint distributes the CVS repository
in /usr/share/gettext/archive.tar.gz, and the cvs program is required to
read it. This is quite innovative, really. From the source:

# The requirement that the user must have the CVS program available is not
# a severe restrictions, because most of the people who use autopoint are
# users of CVS.

I would say that times have changed since autopoint was written, and
this should be fixed. Then we can stop arguing over the meaning of
'Suggests'. :)
