cvsgrab fails on directfb.org

[Richard A. Griffiths]

I'm trying to use cvsgrab to pull source from the directfb.org site. I've successfully used the program to checkout source from sourceforge.  I can browse the site with mozilla. I played with the -webInterface param, but it didn't help.
Here's the command line and errors:
cvsgrab -rootUrl http://www.directfb/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ -webInterface CvsWeb2_0 -packagePath DirectFB/DirectFBGL -destDir . -prune true -proxyHost proxy.jf.intel.com -proxyPort 911
CVSGrab - -Using proxy proxy.jf.intel.com:911

Like an idiot I left the .org off of the URL. Unfortunately that didn't solve the problem. Here is the new error(s). Unknow cvs web interface?

That's again a strange version of cvsweb. I will add support for this in the next version.
