[darcs-users] darcs: failed to read patch db_deadlock happens

[ht]

Hello

I'm new to darcs and I got problem.

I was trying pull out package named "elephant" which is common-lisp
obj-db. then I got the error message below.
it said "Make DEADLOCK-DETECT=T the default.", but I have no idea which
file to put that line. I read manuals and searching google to solve the
problem. but none of them are helpful.

Should I put the "DEADLOCK-DETECT=T" line in `.darcs' at home-directory?
If anybody know how to solve it, please, let me know.

regards,

Hidemi Tachikawa
