Dear d-i translators,
The Debian Installer is in the process of switching its repository to subversion.
The CVS repository is still working, but read-only.
So, I suggest you already try to do checkouts and commits with svn instead of CVS:
So, formerly, you checked out the tree with: CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -d <your_login>@haydn.debian.org:/cvsroot/d-i co debian-installer
Now, you should move this away and do a first checkout with svn:
svn co svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/d-i/trunk debian-installer
(please make you you use your alioth login as SSH login on svn.debian.org. From my ~/.ssh/config:
Host svn.debian.org User bubulle
SVN commands have a syntax similar to CVS.
For those of you who use woody machines, you may have a svn backport at:
