Subversion 1.0 setup without ebuild?

Arist

Since it sounds like the ebuild is not quite ready for primetime, can anybody point me in the direction of a good resource for installing this?

I understand I need the Berkeley DB and apache as well, which I have already emerged, but I'm not sure how to proceed from here.

This wasn't too tough.

I emerged BerkelyDB and Apache.

I unmasked Subversion and did an emerge --pretend to see it's dependencies, which on a fresh box were swig, libxml, and neon. I emerged those.

I grabbed a source tarball from subversion.tigris.org and followed the INSTALL directions. The only tricky part was specifying the apxs2 script for the build, which apparently has to do with the apache libs it needs.

From there everything I needed to know to actually get the Subversion server up and running was either in the Subversion source README or the apache docs, as this was my first exposure to Apache.

could you please write a short summary what you have done?

I've never used apache nor subversion, but have to set up a server running subversion.

emerging subversion tells me, that apache2 is blocking or something like that?!

Can someone help me with that? :oops:

Add "apache2" flag to your USE flags and the problem with blocking apache should be solved.

heyo!

sorry for not writing it here but i solved the problem myself yesterday! thanx for your answer!

My Subversion Server is up and working perfectly in combination with Eclipse (under Windows)!
Eclipse under Linux doesn't like the subclipse Plugin. I tried Eclipse-bin Version 2 and Eclipse-sdk Version 3. Version 2 activates the Plugin but but does not function correctly and 3 can't even startup the plugin.

But since all the clients here are running win2k (up to now) its not such a big problem!
