I've just tried it out on my home-box, which is a ubuntu edgy x86 installation, and git-cvsimport seems to work quite fine here. On our server, which is a suse 9.3 amd64 installation (with the latest suse updates for that version), I just can't get it to run. Currently I wonder how I got _any_ git-cvsimport to work there. Still the same error 256 ... How do I find out the minimum-version of tools I need to use git-cvsimport? I already know about cvsps and did install a current version there, but there seem to be some more dependencies ... Or could it be a 64-bit issue somewhere? 'make test' says everything is fine. If you can point me in the some direction on how to debug this, I'll give it a try, currently I have no clue where to start. > too...

Which means something on our server is the reason for git-cvsimport not working.
