CVS repository problem

[Paul Chitescu]

Hi!

Something is - again - wrong with CVS. Although I fetched a wine with git I 
tried to verify some patches I had in the CVS tree.

cvs -z3 -q up -APd

cvs update: failed to create lock directory for `/home/wine/wine/dlls/acledit' 
(/home/wine/wine/dlls/acledit/#cvs.lock): Permission denied
cvs update: failed to obtain dir lock in repository 
`/home/wine/wine/dlls/acledit'
cvs [update aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

Maybe a chown -R would help?

I tried to fix the CVS gateway this weekend, but apparently it doesn't
quite work yet. I tried to fix the permissions now, we'll see. If it
still doesn't work I'm going to pull the plug on it, I don't want to
waste more time maintaining that stuff.
