                Priority: 5 - Normal
                Severity: 5 - Blocker
                  Status: None
             Assigned to: None
        Originator Email: address@hidden
        Operating System: None
             Open/Closed: Open
         Discussion Lock: Any

    _______________________________________________________

Details:

We cannot check out or update from the 'emacs' repository at (for example)
:ext:address@hidden:/sources/emacs, because of this error:

  $ cvs up -dP
  can't create temporary directory /tmp/cvs-serv23644
  Read-only file system
  $ 

Multiple developers are experiencing this problem, which suggests that it is
a server-side issue (specifically, that /tmp is mounted read-only for some
reason on the CVS server).  See

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2009-10/msg00474.html

for another developer who reports this.

Thank you,
-Karl
