After a few weeks off from updates, I tried to update my java-overlay with layman and I'm hitting this issue below.
The error text makes me think I'm using a newer version of svn with an svn repository that is older(and incompatible).
Is that interpretation right, and more importantly, anyone have a fix or workaround?

Got here searching for the error message you quote which I got trying to do
Code:
svn up
on a subversion repo after I recently upgraded svn.

I think your interpretation is right. Trying the answer from http://subversion.open.collab.net/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4&viewType=browseAll&dsMessageId=432239 I found out that you should just have to go to /var/lib/layman/java-overlay and say
Code:
svn upgrade
, after that
Code:
svn up
(apparently called from layman) should work again (as it did for me and my subversion repo).

Thanks for the help.

Layman should be taking care of this automatically when SVN is upgraded instead of failing and requiring the user to do it.
