[Lxr-general] Problem with CVS backend and --allverions

[Joseph W. <jwi...@ou...>]

I'm using the most recent version of everything from CVS, and when I try to
run './genxref --url=http://cvs.mydomain.com/lxr' (Implicit --allverions), I
get nothing.. no errors or anything.  However, if I do
'./genxref --url=http://cvs.mydomain.com/lxr --version=1.2', it will
generate all the indexes for v1.2 (And also 1.1, oddly).

After a bit of searching, I believe I've pinpointed the problem to be in the
fact that LXR::Common::pathname is empty.  And since in lxr.conf, the
example for getting all CVS versions is as follows:
         'range'   => sub { return
                    ($files->allreleases(LXR::Common::pathname),
                     $files->allrevisions(LXR::Common::pathname))
                    }, # deferred function call.

It doesn't find a single version. (Not even the default version)

Any suggestions on workarounds or fixes for this? I'm up against a brick
wall at the moment on this one.
