Troubleshoot Mac Os X cvsmonitor Install

[João Alveirinho Correia]

1 - use darwinports to get some of the necessary libs

2 - get the necessary objects for the perl using CPAN

3 - change the perl script Metadata.pm in /Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables/cvsmonitor/modules/CVSMonitor/ path

comment the original line in the function cvsversion sub to accept cvs version greater than 1.*.*

sub cvsversion {
        my $self = shift;
        my @output = `cvs -v`;
        chomp(@output);
#       if ( $output[1] =~ /\b(1\.[\d\.p]+)/ ) {
        if ( $output[1] =~ /\b(2\.[\d\.p]+)/ ) {
                return $1;
        } else {
                return undef;
        }
}

youre done and can start to work!
