Description Ronald Vink 2017-07-25 14:45:52 CEST

Description of problem:
Meld does not support CVS'ed files

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
meld --version -> meld 3.1.6.4
cvs  --version -> 1.12.13

How reproducible:
On every cvs'ed directory

Steps to Reproduce:
1. fresh install Mageia 6 x86 with cvs and svn
2. install meld 
3. do a 'cvs checkout' of existing repoitory
4. do a 'svn checkout' of existing repository
5. cd to the cvs directoty, change some files and start 'meld .'
   No change is reported in meld, the combobox top-right says "None" with tooltip "No valid version control system found in this folder"
6. Do the same in the svn'ed directory and meld reacts like it should do.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 6 is end of life.

Mageia stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 6. At that time this bug will be closed as OLD (EOL).

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to 
fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later 
Mageia version prior to Mageia 6's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we cannot 
be able to fix it before Mageia 6 was end of life.
If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, 
sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia 
release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
