[mesa-users] svn download error

[Bill Wolf]

Hi all,

Just some resolution to this problem:

It appears to have been a sad concurrence of problems. The first aborted checkout resulted in a bad mesa directory that resisted updating. Then when the problem was brought to my office, we attempted to fix it on a guest network which, while fast, must have been blocking svn checkouts. After clearing out the .subversion directory and getting the same connection refusal error, we moved to a public network with evidently fewer restrictions. There, the checkout went as expected and we are now happily installing.

Thanks for your help!

Regards,

Bill
