In the example modules-file I found an entry "make-links" near the label "sys". If I am write when I say, that before I checkin a complete direktorystructur into the CVS-database, I have to grep out all symbolic links, safe these data in a special file and restore these links after checkout? When there is anybody outside who has solved this problem, please let me know your solution.
