Hello everyone,

I've had my package approved and I'm trying to import my package to CVS but
I'm falling at the first hurdle as I can't checkout common.

According to the instructions at step 3.7 of  <
http://rpmfusion.org/Contributors#Your_package_gets_approved> I should do
the following:

----------------------------------------------------------

export CVSROOT=:ext:<RPMFusion_username>@cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/<tree>export
CVS_RSH=ssh

Start ssh-agent to ensure that cvs uses your id_rsa key:

ssh-agent $SHELL

Then, checkout the common tool and import your SRPM as follow :

cvs co commoncd common./cvs-import.sh -b <branch> <my_srpm>

During the CVS import procedure, your source files will be automatically
tagged for the requested branch.

[image: {i}] <tree> is the cvs tree where your source files should be
imported/go (*free* or *nonfree*).

[image: {i}] <branch> is the cvs branch where your source files should be
imported/go (*devel* , *F-14* , *F-15* , etc.)."
-----------------------------------------------------------

But my interpretation of this produces an error:

[makerpm at weaver ~]$ export CVSROOT=:ext:gbirchley at cvs.rpmfusion.org:/cvs/nonfree
[makerpm at weaver ~]$ export CVS_RSH=ssh
[makerpm at weaver ~]$ ssh-agent $SHELL
[makerpm at weaver ~]$ cvs co common
Permission denied (publickey).
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)


I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
It's a while since I generated my ssh key, so I can't remember what I
did to do this, I think probably I just ran ssh-keygen.

I have sshkey sshkey.pub in my home directory.

My apologies I'm sure this is a simple problem, but any advice would
be gratefully received.

May thanks,


Giles
