Basic securtiy tip. Don't use root! The only time you should be logged
in as root is to install and configure software. Your day to day
normal work should be done with a normal user account.

My guess is you did not start from a clean directory. You now have a
mix of 1.3.1 and 2.0 in your work directory, which is not going to
work. rm -fr your work directory and start again.

You might also find that v2.0 is too old as well, depending on your
toolchain. You might need anoncvs.
