[kepler-dev] [kepler-users] Actor packaging

Dan,

I did a synchronize with the Ptolemy CVS and found no discrepancies.  I did
this on Saturday.  That site is changing, however, and would now show
differences.

The second problem (also mentioned in a previous post) is that MacAfee
immediately removes shutdown.bat (2) during CVS updates or checkouts.  This
seems to foul up CVS.  According to our IT department, shutdown.bat could be
changed as follows:

McAfee seems to only detect:
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown -r -t 0 -f"

and if you change the string slightly:
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown -r -t 1 -f"

or:
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\shutdown -r -f -t 0"

I cannot prevent the deletion at work, so fixing it so there is no false
positive would be good.

I have already redone the checkouts twice, and it is pretty time consuming.
Perhaps I can do it again at home, where I don't get the MacAfee problem.

Later:  Following Chad's suggestion I did full-clean ptolemy run-dev and got
the same error.  (This is what I did before with the addition of
buildkarlib.)

Kenneth,
    I have seen the error you report a few times in the nightly build. 
It was caused by a corrupted checkout from the Ptolemy CVS archive (the 
checkout was incomplete but gave no error message). I 'fixed' it by 
checking out a fresh version of Ptolemy.  This only occurred once in a 
while and repeating the checkout fixed it, so I was  unable to repeat 
the problem and determine what was causing it.
