2007.12.19 19:03 "[Tiff] libtiff 3.9?", by Jannes Bolten
apologies - i just installed CVS and need some help. i haven't used CVS before. being the proverbial noob, i rely on very straightforward instructions... :-(
1st, does anyone know whether the error John Cupitt signaled has been addressed in version 3.9? if not, i guess i'll have to give it a shot to fix the code manually.
on the remotsensing.org web site i found this:
export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvsanon@cvs.maptools.org:/cvs/maptools/cvsroot
cvs login
(use empty password)
cvs checkout -r branch-3-9 libtiff
to get stable libtiff branch
typing
export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvsanon@cvs.maptools.org:/cvs/maptools/cvsroot
worked fine. then i gave the empty password (just pressed return). Something went wrong here. Please see my output:
Waitsfield:libtiff-3.9 jannes$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvsanon@cvs.maptools.org:/cvs/maptools/cvsroot
Waitsfield:libtiff-3.9 jannes$ cvs login

CVS password:
cvs(65946) malloc: *** error for object 0x301f50: double free
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
As you can see, I tried to work around it by creating an empty text file in my ~/ directory, named .cvspass - to no avail.
Can someone please help me out with this?
thanks!
