[yocto] Troubleshooting ERROR: Function 'Fetcher failure for URL: 'cvs://anoncvs:anoncvs at anoncvs.handhelds.org/cvs; module=apps/update-rc.d; tag=r0_7'?

[Daryl Spitzer]

I'm continuing to try to successfully build an image for the first
time, following the instructions in the Yocto Project Quick Start
(http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html).

As suggested in
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2011-June/001598.html,
I'm now trying http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/poky/poky-bernard-5.0.1.tar.bz2.
 And I'm following the instructions in
https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Working_Behind_a_Network_Proxy,
including defining CVS_PROXY_HOST & CVS_PROXY_PORT in my local.conf
file.

But I'm getting the following error:

NOTE: fetch http://anoncvs@autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/apps.update-rc.d_anoncvs.handhelds.org_r0_7_.tar.gz
NOTE: Fetch cvs://anoncvs:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org/cvs;module=apps/update-rc.d;tag=r0_7
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
ERROR: Function 'Fetcher failure for URL:
'cvs://anoncvs:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org/cvs;module=apps/update-rc.d;tag=r0_7'.
Unable to fetch URL
cvs://anoncvs:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org/cvs;module=apps/update-rc.d;tag=r0_7
from any source.' failed

(This is the contents of the logfile created in
poky-5.0.1-build/tmp/work/all-poky-linux/update-rc.d-0.7-r3/temp/log.do_fetch.16236.)

It's not clear to me if this is a proxy problem.

If I try `wget http://anoncvs@autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/apps.update-rc.d_anoncvs.handhelds.org_r0_7_.tar.gz`,
I see the following:

$ wget http://anoncvs@autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/apps.update-rc.d_anoncvs.handhelds.org_r0_7_.tar.gz

But `wget http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/apps.update-rc.d_anoncvs.handhelds.org_r0_7_.tar.gz`
(same as above, but s/anoncvs@//) succeeds:

How do I troubleshoot or move past this?
