Re, Bruno,

        here is the information you requested;

bash-2.05b$ autopoint
cvs init: CVSROOT proxy specification is only valid for gserver and
cvs init: pserver connection methods.
/apps/unsupported/bin/autopoint: line 405: 15722 Segmentation fault 
cvs -d "$CVSROOT" init
cvs checkout: CVSROOT proxy specification is only valid for gserver and
cvs checkout: pserver connection methods.

find: archive: No such file or directory
autopoint: *** infrastructure files for version 0.12.1 not found; this is 
autopoint from GNU gettext-tools 0.14.5

BTW, is there currently a gettext mailing list where these problems
can be reported ? was not able to find one, except gettext-announce,
gettext-cvs .. (don't know what gettext-alpha is all about)
