I use debian woody weekly updated .
I've checked on debian home page and for sarge and experimental the cvs
version is 1:1.12.9-13.
But i don't care about security holes: my cvs is in my intranet, not
reachable from the net.
I'll check for changelog to see if it worth the upgrading due to some
new feature, thanks.
