Bug#1928: /usr/lib/cvs incomplete



Package: cvs
Version: 1.6-1

It appears that the cvs binary installation does not install several
files in /usr/lib/cvs that are necessary to create the repository.
This causes cvs to have incorrect assumptions about the state of the
repository when it is first created (per instructions for CVS's
documentation).  It appears that /usr/doc/cvs contains all the files
that /usr/lib/cvs is supposed to have.  A temporary fix is to change
debian.postinst to 'cp -r /usr/doc/cvs/* /usr/lib/cvs'.
