Which platform are you using?
Anyway, for Windows you need to get:
For STABLE builds you need to checkout the following using something like
cvs -z3 co -r ABI-1-0-0-STABLE %module%
where %module is one of abi abidistfiles wv
and optionally abiword-docs abiword-plugins
and then you need to check out the following (on Windows, I think on some other
platforms they may be shared libraries and so not required to get from cvs)
that are shared between HEAD & STABLE using something like
cvs -z3 co %module%
where %module% is one of expat libiconv libpng psiconv zlib
and on Windows nsis (the packager) and optionally MSVC (MS VC 6 project files).
There may be other modules required for other platforms?
Then for HEAD you would just use for all of them
cvs -z3 co %module%
where %module% is one of
abi abidistfiles expat libiconv libpng nsis wv zlib popt fribidi
with MSVC abiword-docs abiword-plugins optional, and one of the
importer/exporter plugins will still require psiconv but not the main binary.
[Of course some of the other plugins may have other dependencies as well.]
As you can see, the main difference is HEAD does not require psiconv
but now requires fribidi (its in abi for STABLE) and popt with some
of the modules branched and some not.
(If you look at the tinderbox logs I believe it will show you all this.)
Hope this helps some.
