Re: CVS tool missing after uninstalling Xcode 3.0 and reinstalling Xcode 2.5

After uninstalling Xcode 3 using the uninstaller-script and reinstalling Xcode 2.5, the CVS tool is missing from /usr/bin. I have some ideas how to get this particular tool back to work, but I am little bit concerned, that there might be more stuff missing or in a non-working condition.

PowerBook G4 1,5 GHz, 12'', MAc OS X 10.5.2 all latest updates included.

I would be graceful if somebody could shed some light on this.

Xcode 2.5 and Xcode 3.0 are designed to live side-by-side and be fully self-contained. Each installer, however, has a package that also installs systemwide content into /usr/bin. Xcode 3.0 installs this content on Leopard, but Xcode 2.5 only installs this content on Tiger- based systems, because doing so on Leopard would downgrade or break system components.


You don't need to remove Xcode 3.0 to install Xcode 2.5.

If you want only Xcode 2.5 but also want system parts in /usr, install just the "Unix System Components" package on the Xcode 3.x installer.

You could also just copy the /Xcode2.5/usr/bin/cvs binary to /usr/bin.
