Try the -m option in the new cvs sources, I can't test it easially here so
give it a good run please.
Specifically -m causes it to not print out an error summary and then
attempt to hold back everything that is missing and then run a problem
resolution pass over the result.
Using it in combination with -f is probably not a good idea (it becomes
possible to error out) because I can't assure the system will be correct
if it didn't start out correct and some important package couldn't be
fetched.
