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:

# Subversion backport deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable subversion
