[Users] Cannot update QuasiLocalMeasures

[Roland Haas]

Hello Erik, Barry,

> This is from home.  I think it works fine from LSU.  
It worked for me from within LSU, yes (on is.cct.lsu.edu). Just cvs
update will do the trick, GetComponents is not required.

They never seem to have tried. maybe they do not have access to an
outside machine?

I me sending emails back and forth with them I could narrow the problem
down to find one file that gives trouble.

/LSUThorns/QuasiLocalMeasures/test/qlm-minkowski/quasilocalmeasures::qlm_invariant_coordinates.norm_inf.asc

Which I cannot update (but can check out).

I have enclosed a transcript of the latest email. I have not heard from
support since then (neither that they have given up nor that the problem
has been solved).

Yours,
Roland
