GnoTeX is not ready to work with it. If you want to see the actual stage use cvs like follows:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gnotex login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gnotex co -P gnotex
Hit return for password, there isn't any.
If you use
Gentoo you may want to use my
ebuild for a systemwide installation.
