During a testbuild of cvs-1.11.17-5 in mock, the following problem in the buildprocess manifests itself: checking for vim... no checking for vi... no checking for emacs... no checking for nano... no checking for pico... no checking for edit... no configure: error: Failed to find a text file editor. CVS cannot be compiled without a default log message editor. Searched for `vim vi emacs nano pico edit'. Try `configure --with-editor'. error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.148 (%build) It seems cvs won't build without an installed editor. Thus it would be good if the specfile either contains a BuildRequire for an editor or the --with-editor command is used during the %configure phase. As the current cvs builds from redhat use vim as the standard editor, the latter option would probably be the easiest choice.
