Greetings

I've performed the steps listed on http://www.mozilla.org/build/unix.html. While
in the middle of make -f client.mk checkout I had to ctrl-c and reboot. So I got
back up and started again. Now I receive this:

cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/build:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/public:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/src:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory

After this, I ran configure like so:

 CC=gcc3.2 CXX=gcc3.2 ./configure --with-qtdir=/usr/local/qt-2.3.2-gcc3
--enable-calendar --enable-svg --disable-ldap --enable-optimize=-O2 --enable-boehm 

and received these messages:

creating mailnews/absync/build/Makefile
can't read ./mailnews/absync/build/Makefile.in: No such file or directory
creating mailnews/absync/Makefile
can't read ./mailnews/absync/Makefile.in: No such file or directory
creating mailnews/absync/public/Makefile
can't read ./mailnews/absync/public/Makefile.in: No such file or directory
creating mailnews/absync/src/Makefile
can't read ./mailnews/absync/src/Makefile.in: No such file or directory

I didn't notice 


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make -f client.mk checkout
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
vs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/build:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/public:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs checkout: in directory mozilla/mailnews/absync/src:
cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
no errors were expected

Someone removed those Makefiles from the tree w/o removing the corresponding
allmakefiles.sh entries so it's causing bustage for those who build in the tree.

for bug #192074, I forgot to checkin my change to mozilla/mailnews/makefiles:

Index: mailnews/makefiles
===================================================================
RCS file: /cvsroot/mozilla/mailnews/makefiles,v
retrieving revision 1.73
diff -r1.73 makefiles
2,5d1
< mailnews/absync/build/Makefile
< mailnews/absync/Makefile
< mailnews/absync/public/Makefile
< mailnews/absync/src/Makefile

I just checked in that change.  Is that what caused this problem?
