My understanding is that Redhat 7.2 GNU/Linux provides an update to cvs-1.11.1p1-8.7.i386.rpm for the security fix that caused cvs-1.11.5 to be released. However, if you really want the new version of cvs in an RPM, you should consider building it yourself (it is easy to do). You should be able to fetch a copy of the cvs-1.11.5.tar.bz2 file from the cvshome.org download pages and make your own RPM package using the following steps: bunzip2 cvs-1.11.5.tar.bz2 | tar xvf - cd cvs-1.11.5 ./configure You may need to be root for the next few steps or you need to change the ownership of the /usr/src/redhat tree to your own userid. cp ../cvs-1.11.5.tar.bz2 /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES rpm -ba cvs.spec chown -R bkowald /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/cvs-1.11.5/src Now you need to be a normal user cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/cvs-1.11.5/src make localcheck remotecheck If everything works, you may now use: rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/cvs-1.11.5-1.i386.rpm and (optionally) rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/cvs-krb5-1.11.5-1.i386.rpm to install the packages you built.
