DetailsAfter a system update (in which pacman was updated as well) I tried running 'abs', which resulted in the following output:

My running version is 2.9.8. Anyone else come across this problem? |

You could try using "csup" instead. There's a package for it.
The current abs script doesn't know about it yet, but you could cheat by --remove'ing the cvsup package and creating a /usr/bin/cvsup symlink to /usr/bin/csup, just for testing.
The wins module and several other things in samba are broken, ubuntu has one or more fixes in their package, which we could use.
hosts: files wins dns
After removing "wins", it works perfectly.
