[Fink-beginners] problem with selfupdate

[Adam Weeks]

I've been checking the documentation, and searching through the mail lists, but haven't found the answer to my problem.
I cut and paste the version info, and then pasted small bits of my selfupdate problems...

Version:
[localhost:~] aweeks% fink --version
Package manager version: 0.9.12
Distribution version: <<<<<<< VERSION
0.3.2a
=======
0.4.0.cvs
>>>>>>> 1.3

When I run %fink selfupdate,

[localhost:~] aweeks% fink selfupdate
sudo /sw/bin/fink selfupdate

Your Fink installation is set up to update package descriptions directly from
CVS. Do you want to use this setup and update now? [Y/n] (Return)

I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions.
After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then
update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.

### cvs failed, exit code 1
Failed: Updating using CVS failed. Check the error messages above.

I also noticed fink sometimes looks for "/var/root/.cvsroot", and it's actually located in my home directory instead...
When I try "fink selfupdate-cvs" I run into the same error messages..

Thanks,
Adam
