Installing the new version

[Andy Jones]

Okay, I admit it.  This is the one bit of Linux that gives me cold 
sweats.  I've just updated CVS to 1.11.10 the hard way, from source.

Okay, when I say "the hard way" I mean that I just typed "./configure ; 
make ; make install " - but the thought of what *could* have gone wrong.....!

I much prefer RPMs.  I tried installing from the RPM package, but rpm just 
did nothing.  Can anyone tell me what stupid mistake I made?  Or is there 
something wrong with the RPM?

For reference, I typed:

rpm -i cvs-1.11.10-cvshome.org.1.src.rpm

And instantly got the command prompt again, with no errors and no result.
