Description Curtis Windatt CLA 2011-02-24 17:42:23 EST 
The javadoc on KnownRepositories#getRepository(String location) says the uri format is 

connection:user[:password]@host[#port]:root

However, the uri must be prefixed with an additional colon as follows to work correctly

:connection:user[:password]@host[#port]:root

We are fixing some failing PDE tests that involve CVS (bug 338133) and had problems getting the URI correct because of this.
