Do you have some link or more information so I can send to the package maintainer? Maybe help me to describe the problem with enough precision. I like the way Stefan points it: "it's got to do with envvars not being inherited everywhere. It can screw up any program in any number of ways".

The problem is that you put "export CVS=ssh" into some shell init file (~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile, I guess) and that it didn't take effect for programs started under Gnome or whatever you're using. At least that's my understanding. -- This line is not blank. ----Next_Part(Fri_Jun_20_00:04:10_2003_621)-- Content-Type: Message/Rfc822 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Date: 18 Jun 2003 14:49:11 -0400 From: "Stefan Monnier" To: help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org Subject: Re: commit problem with cvs mode Message-ID: <5lvfv39q6w.fsf@rum.cs.yale.edu> References: <5l8ys0ax6a.fsf@rum.cs.yale.edu> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii MIME-Version: 1.0 Precedence: list Message: 6 > Everybody does not use CVS_RSH=ssh.
